Hi, I’m Makenna Balmer, the proud owner and operator of Quirky Canines Dog Training. With years of hands-on experience working alongside multiple animal rescues and founding my own foster-based rescue, Ray of Light Animal Rescue, I’ve dedicated my life to helping animals thrive.
My passion for animals is the driving force behind my training philosophy. I believe in creating a strong, lasting bond between dogs and their owners using modern, effective methods. At Quirky Canines, I specialize in electronic stimulus collar training — think of it like a gentle TENS machine — to ensure clear communication and lasting results.
Every dog is unique, and I’m committed to tailoring each training program to meet your dog’s specific needs. Together, we’ll build confidence, trust, and a well-balanced relationship. When you choose Quirky Canines, you’re not just hiring a trainer — you’re gaining a partner in your dog’s success. Let’s make your training journey a rewarding experience for both you and your canine companion!
