Meet Our Dog Trainer:
Ramona is the Head Breeder and Trainer here at D.R.G. Canine Services.
She is an Animal Behavior College Certified Dog Trainer Instructor and has been training dogs professional since 2017. However, her journey to becoming a dog trainer started much earlier at age 12 when she trained her very first dog, Maya (German Shepherd/Rottweiler) and overcame her aggressivity issues. Ramona's passion is to breed and train perfect family and farm canines. When breeding, her priority is intelligence, loyalty, soundness, solid built, trainability and super cuteness, rather then pedigrees. Her desire is to provide excellent and affordable canine companions. When training, her priorities are to better the lives of canines by teaching leadership and clear communication between humans & their canines. |
"I still can't believe the transformation in my large-breed dog since Ramona began private training sessions.
My dog already knew obedience commands but had many aggressive/protective tendencies because she didn't know how to guard me correctly.
Within 4-6 weeks she was muzzle trained and doing a proper heel in public settings.
She is a much happier dog as she looks to me for cues and direction- feeling proud of her "job" of protecting me and my family in walks.
We have to keep in practice but Ramona was a miracle worker who was very patient and respectful of our past traumas and triggers that happened out on walks- and offered guidance so we would feel more confident!
Would most highly recommend Ramona and D.R.G canine services!

We adopted a German Shepherd puppy and we had Ramona helped us choose the right one and train her using her boarding service for a month. We already have a dog so she made the transition to our home very smoothly, as she used different techniques like meet & greet, play dates .... It's been a wonderful experience, we value her expertise and her love for our dogs.

Ramona is a very caring and competent dog trainer. I have worked with her over the summer to train my 2 year old male German Shepherd. He is a very high energy dog who knew some basics but is very strong willed. Ramona helped to show me and my husband consistency, positive reinforcement, consistency, proper correction techniques, consistency, better person to dog communication skills, and CONSISTENCY!! At the end of this summer, I am happy to say (and never thought I would get here) that my dog is now dependable on a recall and I can walk him off lead in appropriate situations. his overall behavior is much improved. Ramona's sensitivity to our dog's personality has been outstanding.
