As a child I have always enjoyed taking care of and training animals. I was convinced that some day I would be a marine biologist, vet or go into zoology. Once I went to high school I realized there was other careers that didn't deal with animals, I convinced myself that a medical career would be the career for me. I went to EMT school, phlebotomy school as well as attending all the college classes to apply for nursing. I really enjoyed learning and applying all the medical knowledge I learned however I always felt as if I was missing something I decided to take a semester off of school and decide if a medical career was really the career for me, this is when I realized I needed to have a career with animals specifically dogs to truly be excited about going to work everyday. I spent hours online researching different careers with animals and one website I came across really excited me. I decided to become a dog trainer, within 4 months me and best friend my Cane Corso Cerberus where on a flight to Triple Crown Dog Academy in Hutto, Texas. I stayed at Triple Crown for 3 months learning how to train all temperaments of dogs from eight in the morning until eight at night seven days a week. Was taught by some of the worlds best dog trainers learning and applying multiple methods of training as well learning how to read and understand canine behavior. I covered everything in classes as well a private instruction from clicker training to canine aggression.

Best in Town!!

I tried multiple trainers in town and wasn't happy until I met Tonya, she is hands down the best in town! No need to say anything else, but before you waste your money on other trainers call TLC Canine Coaching first!

Move over Cesar Millan

I was having so many problems with my Schnauzer that I was considering getting rid of him. He was always barking and because I live in a apartment I had multiple complaints from my neighbors. Pepper did not listen to anything I said and always ran away from me. Tonya came and did 6 private lessons at my home and now he is the best behaved dog! I wish I hired Tonya earlier so Pepper and I could enjoy each other sooner.

Exceeded Expectations

Tonya showed up on time for all appointments and was very professional. Her techniques were easy to follow and very effective. I had 2 dogs that were very different and she came up 2 completely different training programs for both. I would recommend her to anyone who wants more out of there dog. At first I wasn't even sure I needed training for my dogs, but now would never own a dog that hasn't been trained.

Highly Recommend TLC Canine Coaching

I sent my ill mannered 1 yr old lab to Tonya for her 6 week Ink program. I did weekly lessons with her so I understood everything she was teaching Molly from a week to week basis. Molly came home a changed dog and I am so glad I sent her to Tonya. She can now hang out with me in the house without jumping on counters and people and I can even take her off leash hiking and she listens to me better than any of the other dogs. Thanks Tonya!

beware

I wouldn't be happy with Tonya training my dogs. She'e your typical non-educated girl that went and got a certificate saying that she was now a "dog trainer". Don't waste your money on this mobile service. She doesn't have a place of business, and her "training" is less than impressive. Find a place where you go to classes with your dog where you and your dog can be around other dogs and get real training from real professionals. This is a waste of time and money.
