You Know This Feeling

Walks became something you dread.

You’ve tried the harnesses. The YouTube videos. Maybe another trainer or two. And nothing has actually stuck.

You adopted a rescue who came with baggage you didn’t know about.
You had a puppy, life got busy, and now you’re dealing with reactivity, anxiety, or aggression that feels like it came out of nowhere.
You’ve tried other trainers, YouTube rabbit holes, every harness on the market — nothing sticks.
You’re exhausted. Your dog is stressed. You’re starting to wonder if your dog is just broken.

Here’s what’s true:

Your dog isn’t broken. You just need the right approach — and someone willing to do the heavy lifting with you.

Six Weeks From Now

Imagine this.

You clip on the leash and feel… calm. Not that familiar knot in your stomach. Just calm.

Your dog walks beside you — maybe not perfect, but manageable. Another dog passes. You both keep moving. No scene. No embarrassment. Just a normal walk.

Friends come over and your dog greets them like a civilized member of the family. You actually enjoy having people in your home again.

You finally have the dog you imagined when you first brought them home. The companion. The adventure buddy. The good boy (or girl) you always knew was in there.

That’s what TRANSFORM is designed to create.

How Our Behavior Modification Program Works

A six-week behavior modification partnership, built in four phases.

I handle the hardest part first. Then I hand you a dog you can live with — and the skills to keep them that way.

Weeks 1–2

Intensive Foundation

I do the heavy lifting through trainer-handled sessions. Your dog goes home every evening. You watch progress happen in real time. Months of work compress into weeks because every repetition has precise timing and clear communication.

Weeks 3–4

Skill Transfer

Now we bring you in. Private coaching sessions where you learn exactly what I’m doing and why. You practice with guidance. You ask questions in real time. By the end of this phase, you understand the system — and you can run it.

Week 5

Real-World Proofing

We take everything into your actual life — your neighborhood walks in Melbourne, your backyard, the parks and pet-friendly spots in Palm Bay and Viera. Your dog learns these skills don’t just work in training. They work everywhere.

Week 6 & Beyond

Independence + Lifetime Support

By week six, you’re on your own. But I’m not disappearing. You get an annual tune-up every year and text or call any time, for the life of your dog. You have a trainer in your corner. Forever.

Is TRANSFORM Right for You?

Real Client Results

Dogs transformed. Owners transformed.

“

I can’t thank Tonya enough! Walks used to be stressful because my dog would get so worked up at the sight of other dogs. Tonya was patient, calm, and showed us how to stay relaxed and confident. She’s patient, encouraging, and made training fun. Highly recommend her!

Tonya did a fantastic job creating a custom guide for Bella. She was incredibly understanding of Bella’s reactivity and provided excellent strategies for managing her anxiety. She treated Bella with such kindness, and her training instructions were clear and easy to follow. I’m looking forward to booking more lessons with her in the future.

When I signed up for online training with Tonya, I wasn’t sure it would work with my 10-month-old Siberian Husky, Dallas — especially virtually. He was jumping on everyone, wouldn’t come when called, and would literally take food right out of the kids’ hands. But it actually worked. Dallas listens now, he’s calmer around the kids, and I feel confident handling him instead of stressed all the time.

Common Questions

Before you book, you might be wondering…

How much does TRANSFORM dog behavior modification cost?

Because every dog is different, I don’t quote pricing until I’ve done a free in-person assessment. Your dog’s specific challenges, your schedule, and your goals shape the program. I’ll walk through everything with you during the consult and give you a clear, honest number — no surprise fees, no pressure.

My dog has serious behavior issues — is TRANSFORM still right for us?

TRANSFORM is specifically designed for serious challenges — reactivity, aggression, severe anxiety, inter-dog conflict. This is my flagship behavior modification program. During your free assessment, I’ll tell you honestly if TRANSFORM is the right fit or if a different approach would serve you better.

What if I’ve worked with other trainers and nothing worked?

Most of my TRANSFORM clients have tried other trainers first. The difference is intensity and approach — this isn’t weekly drop-in lessons. I handle your dog intensively for the first two weeks, then transfer those skills to you. You’re not left to figure it out alone.

How much work do I have to do?

During the first two weeks, I handle the bulk of the training work. From week three on, your involvement ramps up — daily practice, coaching sessions, and real-world application. The program is designed so the effort is front-loaded on me, then transitioned to you with full support. No dog owner I’ve trained has said “this was too much work.”

What happens if we don’t hit the milestones?

If you’re doing the homework and following the plan, we keep going at no extra charge until we hit your milestones. First, I extend the program. Then I add a session on me. And if we still can’t get there together, you get a full refund. Training is a partnership — and I take that seriously.

Do you train remotely or only in person?

TRANSFORM is primarily an in-person program in Brevard County (Melbourne, Palm Bay, Viera). For clients outside our service area or those who prefer virtual, I offer a Remote version — same structure, adapted for video coaching. Let me know during your consult which works best for you.

Is my dog too old to change?

No. Dogs of any age can learn new behaviors — older dogs just need a different approach. Some of the most rewarding TRANSFORM cases I’ve worked with have been senior dogs whose owners were told it was too late. It’s not. Ever.

What’s the first step to start dog behavior modification training?

Book a free in-person assessment in Melbourne, Palm Bay, or Viera. I’ll come to you, meet your dog, and we’ll talk through what’s actually going on. From there I’ll tell you honestly whether TRANSFORM is the right fit and what pricing looks like. No pressure, no obligation.
