The Bootcamp Blueprint is our start-to-finish system for real-life results. We first create calm and respect at home, then teach clear leash communication, build distraction-proof obedience, and finally earn off-leash trust. Each phase has clear goals and measurable homework so you can see steady progress week to week.
- Meaningful Boundaries — establish calm, respectful choices at home so training sticks.
- Way of the Walk — transform the walk with leash skills that create focus and connection.
- Bulletproof Obedience — distraction-proof fundamentals you can rely on anywhere.
- Reliable Recall — off-leash freedom with safety, anytime, anywhere.
WHY THE BALANCING PAWS BLUEPRINT?
- A clear, step-by-step system you can follow.
- Designed for real life—home, neighborhood, adventures.
- Coaching that empowers owners, not just dogs.
- Long-term results through calm, consistent structure.

![Best Dog Trainer Phoenix]()
"Great dog training. We have done the 6 week session with one dog and a 2 week session with another dog. The results have been great. The group sessions are a favorite for socializing our cane corso. It’s fun and has made our dogs better more chill companions."

"Yoni is an amazing dog trainer! He not only forms a strong bond with the dogs but also teaches the humans how to keep the progress going. He has helped me with a dog aggressive dog being able to live with another dog roommate. And now a pup that can walk off leash and stay right next to me when out rock climbing."

Yoni, Jenna, and John are amazing. We started with private and group training for our 4-month-old puppy. After a good foundation, we sent him to boarding/training for 3 weeks and WOW the progress has been AMAZING. He is calmer and can be with my two young boys without running around stealing socks, toys, and snacks. He loves his 'place mat' which we can move around the house. Our walks improve every day.
The weekend group training sessions (included with the bootcamp, which is a HUGE bonus) help both me and Kody stay on track while making progress as he continues to grow as a puppy. Thank you so much for caring for our dog while we traveled and setting us up for success! Time to keep it up with group sessions and access to the entire online training! Thanks so much, Yoni and team!!!!
