About Balance & Harmony Dog Training

In-home training in Cocoa

Balance & Harmony Dog Training, also known as the Beachside Dog Whisperer, is run by Kenny Porter from 6894 Outback Rd. in Cocoa. It specializes in private, individualized training and has trained dogs of varied breeds, ages and behavioral needs for more than 15 years. Kenny is a certified trainer with the Dog Training Association of America and has trained dogs along the East Coast of Florida from Flagler County to Miami-Dade County.

How it works

Training happens at the owner's house, where good behavior should begin and most unwanted behavior occurs, or elsewhere if that is where the dog struggles. Each program starts with a behavioral evaluation. Services include puppy training for dogs 8 weeks and older, adult dog training and retraining, obedience, behavior modification, group or socialization settings, service dog training and coaching owners to become pack leader. Common issues include jumping, barking, leash pulling, aggression, anxiety, food aggression, digging and house soiling.

Rates

Sessions in Brevard County cost $75 and last one hour or longer if needed; pricing outside the Space Coast is quoted on request.
