Innovative, gentle dog training and behavior modification by 30+ year pro, internationally certified dog behavior consultant and trainer, Chris Redenbach CDBC, CBCC-KA. Chris Redenbach CDBC, CBCC-KA, founder of the Balanced Dog, thoroughly enjoys dogs and their people. Despite her 30+ years of knowledge and experience, she can still relate to the struggles of dog owners who are having trouble enjo
ying their pets because of behavior. Balanced Dog programs transform the dog owning experience by teaching owners how to communicate with their dogs clearly through training and a variety of activities that enhance life for both humans and dogs. Many behavior problems seem to magically disappear without additional behavior modification, just because owners have learned how to communicate instead of confuse their dog. When more resistant behavior problems persist, Chris uses behavior analysis to assess the problem and develop a behavior modification program specific to those problems. No one else in Georgia has Chris’s qualifications as a dog behavior consultant and trainer. She is certified by the only two certification bodies that certify people who are not veterinarians or PhD’s. She is one of only 58 people worldwide to hold a behavior consultant certificate from The Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CCPDT) whose test is so rigorous that only 56% of applicants pass. She was also one of the earliest to be certified by the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants via their program of defending case studies and designing behavior protocols for a review panel of experts. She has won numerous awards with her own Bouviers des Flandres in French Ring Sport, AKC obedience and AKC conformation. She has also taught animal behavior at Camden County College’s Vet Tech degree program as well as being a member of the faculty of e-trainingfordogs.com where she is designing a course for behavior consultants. Chris has also successfully defended dogs in court cases and has taught a course for animal control officers. She designed and taught humane education courses for children K-5 and middle school kids.
