Tom’s 3-day Transformation Program

Work hands-on with International Dog Trainer Tom Davis to address any and all behavioral and relationship issues between you and your dog. This unique training program runs Thursday-Saturday on select dates each month at our state-of-the-art training facility in Clifton Park NY.

Each weekend program includes up to 3 other dogs and owners, allowing Tom to work one-on-one with you and your dog in private sessions, as well as around other dogs and people in group sessions to simulate real-life distractions.

Tom’s expertise will provide you with the education and tools to improve life with your dog. Our focus on obedience, leadership, and clear communication allows dog owners to fix issues with their dogs and reach their goals.

For those traveling to our facility from out of town, there are pet-friendly hotels within 5 miles to accommodate you and your dog.

Transformation Stories

Real Students, Real Results

I’ve seen Thomas work with other dogs with bigger issues and whether Thomas is dealing with my goofy, growing puppy or a dog with much tougher issues, he is always calm, always patient and always in the moment. Furthermore, that patience and calmness extends to the owners. Thomas answers all my questions (no matter how silly) and takes the time to explain everything he is doing. He has been able to show me my dog’s potential and has given me the tools I need to continue training efforts at home. I always leave a UCA private training session, or group session, feeling empowered and having a better connection with my dog.

We are very happy to have found Upstate Canine Academy for Oakley, our 3 year old German Shepard. Thomas and everyone at Upstate Canine Academy are excellent, highly recommended for training, coaching and education! You will not be disappointed and they can accomplish challenges big and small.

Just a great group of genuinely nice people who have excellent dog training knowledge to share. Strongly recommend them for training & doggy day care needs.

I did a weekend of 1:1 training with Tom to work on my dogs reactive/aggressive behavior. It was such an incredible experience, Tom was able to help us and give me the tools I need as the owner of a reactive dog. We trained outside of UCA in “real world” situations which was very helpful. I cannot recommend Tom and UCA enough!

The team at Upstate Canine Academy is very knowledgeable and friendly. It was such a great experience bringing my German Shepherd and seeing how can turn from a puppy into a well trained dog. I would highly recommend bringing your puppy or dog here… it is truly life changing!

All I can say is “Thank You Tom!” This was the the most amazing training program I could have asked for. I live in Detroit MI, and have a 1.5 yr old yellow lab named Moses. He was struggling with being on a leash during our walks and I was at a loss of what to do. Tom’s expertise and patience made it possible for us to be unified on our walks and eventually even off leash! Being the busy person I am and living in a different state, Tom was able to help us via FaceTime sessions; where he would watch us train together and it felt like he was right there in person. Without the FT training, I would never have been able to get the results I was looking for with Moses. Tom just has so much to offer with his vast knowledge. I could literally go on and on with all the great things this program has brought into my life and all the information I’m walking away with. I would absolutely recommend America’s Canine Academy for training with any dog or just to gain knowledge no matter your geographical location.

I really can’t thank Tom and his amazing staff for the work they did with Nash, our 1 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback/Redbone Coonhound mix. He surprisingly developed aggression and fear towards people. It was heartbreaking, since in every other aspect he was a great dog. After 2 trainers, that truly weren’t helping his fear/aggression, we brought him to the academy for a week of Board and Train. We learned how to use the E Collar properly, and it’s the best thing we could have done. Now we can communicate better and it has helped with his anxiety when he is introduced to new people. He’s getting more confident every day!
