Over ninety percent of all behavior problems are related to the ability to effectively communicate with your dog. Research shows that every dog possesses a unique personality. According to Ivan’s observation and experience, behavioral characteristics of dogs differ to the same degree as they do in humans. Indeed, much of what is known about human personality types is also applicable to the study

of dog behavior. Every dog owner is well aware of the fact that Dogs are pack animals. However, these packs are structurally dynamic, different dogs also possess different drives. Breeds that are generally more responsive to human command, also usually manifest higher levels of socialized behavior in pack situations. This tendency leads many to conclude that dogs that are more socialized also possess a higher level of intelligence, than dogs that are more autonomous in their behavior. Ivan and Natalia Balabanov point out, however, that the distinguishing factor lies in the trainer’s ability to motivate, rather than the intelligence of the dog itself. Breeds with lower pack drives require less attention and companionship than more social dogs. At Dog Training of Tampa Bay, inc. we are proud to say that for us there no hard to train dogs! Ivan’s revolutionary system Obedience Without Conflict is based on the ability to clearly communicate with dogs! His patient style of teaching has made him the most popular coach of trainers in U.S.A. In the past fifteen years, Ivan has given over nine hundred seminars and workshops in the United States, Canada Germany, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Greece, Czech Republic, England, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Australia, Canada, South Korea, Hong Kong, Columbia, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Venezuela (to name a few). which has made him one of the driving forces in popularizing reward-based training around the globe. Natalia and Ivan are fluent in all modern training methods. Take a look at the services and talk to us to find out which ones is the best for your dog and your budget. Worked as an Animal Behaviorist for 5 years at The San Francisco SPCA ( the first non kill animal shelter in the world) his job was to evaluate and successfully rehabilitate dogs, who were referred by other professional dog trainers as hopeless cases. During the same time Ivan also developed the curriculum and was the original founder of The San Francisco SPCA School for Dog Trainers. Worked as an Instructor at The Guide Dogs for the Blind, inc. in San Rafael, CA. Where he trained successfully more than 300 dogs and students. Founder and former president of American Working Malinois Association ( AWMA) FCI ( international) licensed working dog judge Ivan Balabanov is arguably the most accomplished dog trainer in USA, but what makes a dog trainer the best in the world?

Welcome to this short solo podcast! Todays topic is fascinating and controversial: Dr. Karen Overall's deep breath protocol for dogs.
Imagine if your stressed out or aggressive, fearful, anxious dog (pick one), could take few deep breaths and instantly calm themselves down—sounds like a superpower, right?
Well, Dr. Overall suggests that with her Deep Breath Protocol, dogs can learn to do just that, taking deep breaths in the most stressful situations to Self-Regulate and improve their emotions on their own.

Get ready for a fun ten-minute listen as we dig into the canine psyche, debunk some “protocols”, and have a few laughs along the way.
Share your thoughts in the comments, can this be done or wishful thinking?

Welcome everyone to another exciting episode of the Training Without Conflict podcast! I’m thrilled to have Markus Neutz back with us from Germany as our guest. Today, we delve into the world of the FMBB championship, exploring topics like judging, comparing training styles, and much more. Sit back, relax, and enjoy

Welcome to another episode of TWC podcast where we explore diverse perspectives and challenge the status quo. Today, I have a brave guest who steps outside the lines of her community's ideology to share her strong opinions on a topic she's passionate about. It's not easy to question deeply held beliefs, especially when they are influenced by powerful propaganda.

Our conversation highlights the difficulty many people face in changing their opinions once they're anchored in a position. As Patrice O'Neil wisely said, "You can hold your opinions, but don't let your opinions hold you." It's crucial not to be "married" to your ideas. They are just ideas, and clinging to a false belief out of fear of being wrong is far weaker than admitting the mistake. But is it at all possible?!

Join us as we delve into the importance of keeping an open mind, embracing change, and the courage it takes to break free from ideological constraints. Let's dive in!

We have been quiet for a bit as we were regrouping our company and also we went for a trip across the country, all the way to California to give a seminar!

Almost 100 participants were able to get a feeling of what TWC is about and they greatly enjoyed it! The feedback was amazing!

Quiet but super busy… and super happy with outcome we achieved bottom line!
We have new people in our team and we are super excited to work with them!
I feel like things are finally coming into the right place in every aspect of life ☀️💕

So much to tell so hang in there and stay tuned!

(Picture of Frisbee who was her with us lately for some refresher training while his owners were on vacation just for attention 😉)

Few months ago I mentioned that I’m working with some of the best canine scientists on a study that will compare positive reinforcement and positive punishment (electric collar). The research will take place at my facility in Plant City Florida in March.
We need a pool of dogs to select from.
The dogs have to like to chase things 😉
Those that get selected will spend 4-5 days in Plant City Fl.
This will be a fun project and there will be some bonus training offered to the participants.
Please share with your dog friends and clients, the more dogs we have the more credible the research will be!
Generally looking for younger dogs without much training and/or exposure to electric collar.
Here is a link to the survey for those that might be interested.

URGENT! Call to action
San Francisco has a legislation hearing tonight, attempting to ban electric collars. We can stop this madness. The least everyone can do is take a minute and sign the petition to fight this legislation. Time is running out. Please share this on your social

Thank you so much to the 6,835 dog lovers who have signed, shared, contributed, commented and reached out in support of opposing legislation to ban e collars. As San Francisco professional dog trainers, we are so grateful to have your support and we will continue to take action to fight legislation....
