Total Transformation Training

A holistic view to training & behavior modification
Bring Home a Completely Trained Dog with Full Understanding: You can rest assured that the program will provide your dog with an understanding of basic commands, behaviors, boundaries, and manners to ensure a stress-free home environment. 
Our Approach

Our relationship-based training style employs professional behavior modification techniques rooted in science.  Developed over 25 years of professional expertise, we train each dog within their natural motivations to meet each dog's unique needs and behaviors.

Much of our training approach lies in emotional conditioning and behavior modification to support healthy independent decision making. We rewrite experiences so your dog has logical and relaxed responses to the world around them.

 

When dogs know their role within your home, they will achieve harmony within their pack- your family.

​

Whether it’s basic obedience or service dog training, we specialize in crafting calm, well-adjusted companions who can comfortably accompany you on walks, enjoy adventures, meet new friends, and even visit pet-friendly stores or restaurants.

​

Let’s work together to help your dog understand their role within your home to achieve harmony within their pack- your family.

ABOUT TRAINING CAMP
STEP 1- TRAINING Camp
IN OUR home
The perfect learning environment- a quiet farm & home.
Hosted on a picturesque 4-acre farm, our training center is designed to be a serene space where your dog can relax, focus, and thrive.
​
During their stay, Noemi, our experienced behaviorist and trainer, will work with your dog throughout the day from 7 AM to 11 PM. Each training session is thoughtfully designed to teach new cues, reinforce good manners, improve impulse control, and address both on-leash and off-leash behaviors. Through structured training sessions and consistent practice, your dog will learn to make calm, positive decisions while shedding problematic habits.
​
With only 5 dogs in training at a time, your pup will receive individualized attention, creating a stress-free and rewarding learning environment.
​
STEP 3- Your Dog Passes a Final
We go beyond teaching commands—this is about cultivating calm decision-making, establishing good behavior, and nurturing harmonious responses so you can enjoy the best possible life with your pup.

Once your pup has gained confidence and mastered their cues in the tranquil farm setting, we take their training to the real world. Your dog will hone their social skills with supervised practice in pet-friendly stores and restaurants. As the final step, they will pass a public access test in public to officially graduate from the Complete Training Camp.

*Only applies to Complete Education Training Camp

 
STEP 2- Bring your Dog Home on Weekends!
Each weekend, your dog goes home to practice new skills and reinforce good manners with the whole family, while weekly virtual sessions keep everyone learning together.
​
This approach builds consistency between home and training, helping your pup generalize good behavior in real-life settings. By involving the whole household, we create lasting harmony and strengthen the bond between you and your dog. 

 
Step 4- In Home Training
Handing you the Leash- Everything you need to know for your dog to maintain manners & retain cues for life
​​
Every program includes 2-4 in home training sessions to equip you with all communication cues, body language techniques, training fundamentals, and complete understanding of your dog's needs.
You'll learn:
  • Home Layout Planning to benefit dog's behavior & Boundary setting for in the house
  • New Skills, Cues & Consistency Manual Overview
  • Body Language & Communication
  • Walks & Appropriate introductions habit forming
  • When & How to give proper commands, rewards, and correct the dog in various situations.
Family-Focused Training - Our in-home sessions are designed to involve your entire family, ensuring everyone learns how to stay accountable and support each other on the journey to success!
​

Our training programs combine the effectiveness of professional dog training in a quiet, controlled environment with the personalized care of in-home sessions. This hybrid approach ensures your dog receives the best of both worlds—structured learning to minimize distractions and customized guidance to help you maintain progress at home.

The Final Step- Live a Fur-Filled Life!
Fly Free but call me! Unlimited Support for Life!

​​

Your pup will always be considered a member of our pack! We love seeing them back for boarding when you're out of town. If you're even in need of support, we're available for calls for the rest of your dog's life.
