LoMa Behavior and Training

Lorraine is amazing. She recommended a training book to me called When Pigs Fly for working with the more difficult breeds. If you want an idea of her training methods READ the book! I adopted a terrier mix and was at a loss as to how to get him to even come to his own name. My only other dog had been a Lab who was super easy to train. We have a young toddler at home and her techniques have helped me to keep both dog and child safe and happy together. I feel so lucky that we found her. She has blessed us with the greatest dog ever. It took no small amount of work on my part but she was clear about that from the beginning. We are forever grateful.

Lorraine Martinez is a true professional and miracle worker! My bulldog was agressive with every dog he encountered. I foster for the San Antonio English Bulldog rescue and adopted another bulldog. Bringing the second bulldog into my home was a challenge because they had to be separated at all times. Using the training provided by Lorraine and LoMa my two bulldogs are now able to be in the same room together!!! This was accomplished in just a few months. I would highly recommend Lorraine and LoMa to any fur parent having behavior issues!!!

The technique and items taught were helpful but the instructor and location were not. I originally found this trained based on location to my home. It was listed close to 1604 and Bandera but the location of training classes were on NW Military and 410. After a long day of work its not the drive you want. I went ahead out of pure desperation (my dog is crazy and we needed training). The building where the training happens is the lobby of a boarding facility. Small and tiny spot with not much room to work. POOR location. The instructor seemed to primarily focus on 1 or 2 dogs and left the rest to her «assistant» who did nothing more than say «good job». The assistant (dont know exactly what she was or what she was there to do) seemed lost. I was not impressed and would not recommend this training company to anyone else.

Lorraine and her service were an absolute godsend for my wife and I. We brought home a dog from ACS a few weeks ago, and to say this dog was challenged would be a huge understatement. Our dog has severe anxiety issues, and it was quite clear he had been severely abused. All of our prior dogs we had adopted from foster homes. This was our first «real» shelter dog, and it was intimidating to say the least.
I had inquired about a dog walking service online, and as I was talking to the owner of the business about our dog and the challenges we were facing, she mentioned LoMa immediately. They passed Lorraine’s number on to me and I called her service to inquire about a consult. Within 10 minutes of making that phone call, Lorraine had returned my call and was at our house that night for a 90 minute consultation with our dog. Things went great, and she helped us understand a bit more about what we were up against.
Fast forward to almost 3 weeks later, and Lorraine is still staying in touch and monitoring our dog’s progress. She doesn’t have to do this, but she does. It shows the level of care and professionalism she has towards our four legged friends, and I am so glad she was placed in our path. I can’t recommend LoMa enough, and it’s great to know she’s just a click away should I ever need her again. Outstanding.
