About Me
Hi! I’m Emma Delacruz.
I specialize in dog training, behavior problem solving, and rehabilitation. Whether you're looking for guidance with a personal family pet, a high-energy dog, or a driven potential working or sport dog, I offer personalized training to fit your needs. I also provide board and train programs and dog boarding options for clients in the Rogue Valley, including Grants Pass, Medford, Ashland, and Central Point.
We’re always welcoming new members who share a passion for working dogs, personal protection dogs, and police K9s for sale and training.
​
I’ve always had a deep love for animals. But the most rewarding part of my job is helping people build a better relationship with their dog and achieve real, lasting results. It takes patience and hard work, but the outcome is a solid relationship built on trust, respect, and understanding. I'm constantly learning, working with various trainers, and staying open to different approaches because every dog is unique—and having a diverse set of dog training techniques is essential.
​
Over the past five years, I’ve partnered with a local Dutch Shepherd breeder and police dog trainer who provides dogs for local law enforcement. I train and handle future police K9s multiple times a week—dogs that are being certified for agencies across Oregon, California, Nevada, and even the East Coast.
One of my most exciting placements was K9 Xena, who joined the Wasco County Sheriff's Office as their first-ever patrol K9. Other successful placements include K9 Ruger (Jackson County), K9 Karma, K9 Taz, K9 Veegee, K9 DeeDee, and K9 Arete—all proud examples of our police K9 training program.
​
Together with my mentor, we've combined our knowledge and passion to offer high-level personal protection dog training and tracking work. These services are ideal for dogs with strong drive or those needing more confidence. We also offer personal protection dogs for sale to clients across Oregon, California, and neighboring states.
​
We meet weekly for group training in advanced obedience, personal protection, and tracking. Group classes are fantastic for improving your dog’s behavior around distractions, addressing reactivity, and helping dogs feel more confident in new environments.

With over seven years of experience in animal care, I've worked in multiple capacities—from handling dogs in boarding and daycare environments to training and behavioral assessments. I’ve been a lead trainer at a busy facility, taught everything from beginner to advanced dog obedience, and worked as a tech assistant in a 24/7 emergency vet hospital.
​
I’ve also completed two six-month hands-on apprenticeships with respected dog trainers and rescue groups, and have provided pet sitting, training, and specialized care for countless beloved pets.

Stay and Train
Personalized and Professional
If your dog needs help with specific training or behavioral issues, staying with Perfect Pack Dog Training may be the ideal solution. We offer board and train programs for clients in Grants Pass, Medford, Ashland, and surrounding Rogue Valley areas.
​
Training sessions are conducted by me—Emma—working one-on-one with your dog twice a day throughout the duration of their stay. Depending on the behaviors you’d like to improve, our session locations may vary to create real-world success.
​
Common dog training requests include basic obedience, loose-leash walking (pulling on the leash), dog aggression, socialization, and helping dogs with difficult pasts build confidence and trust in people. For dogs with working potential, we can also assess and build foundational skills for sport dogs and personal protection dog training.
​
I often utilize public parks and pet-friendly stores as training environments. This strengthens focus, builds engagement around distractions, and prepares your dog to succeed in everyday situations.
​
Pet Sitting
Allowing Your Pet to Feel at Home
Finding the right place for your pet to stay while you’re away can be tough. Traditional dog boarding facilities with rows of kennels, constant barking, and minimal interaction can be overwhelming and stressful for many dogs.
​
That’s why I offer a more personal alternative: your dog stays with me on a peaceful, 46-acre property located in Southern Oregon, just outside Grants Pass—with a seasonal creek, endless trees, and scenic trails where I take the dogs hiking and exercising daily.
​
We have a large, secure dog enclosure for supervised social play with other dogs, along with a quiet and calming atmosphere that helps even the most anxious dogs feel at ease.
​
Our boarding setup includes spacious walk-in kennels with metal roofing and sides, warm insulated dog houses, comfy beds, cozy blankets, and of course—plenty of toys.
​
My goal is always to ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. My home becomes their home. Your pet will enjoy one-on-one attention, affection, and a comforting routine throughout their stay.
​
One-on-One Training
How can I Help?
I offer hourly private dog training sessions where we meet one-on-one to work through any issues you and your dog may be experiencing.
​
These sessions are hands-on and collaborative. My goal is to support you, help build your confidence as a handler, and guide you toward a stronger, more understanding relationship with your dog.
​
Each session is completely tailored to your needs—whether it’s obedience, leash pulling, reactivity, or behavior modification. We’ll talk through your concerns, then create a personalized dog training plan you can follow throughout the week.
​
You’ll leave each session with targeted exercises and practical training tips—your "homework" to continue working on until we meet again.
​
Follow-up sessions, whether weekly or biweekly, allow us to track your progress and make sure you're seeing results. These sessions are available throughout the Rogue Valley, including Grants Pass, Medford, and surrounding areas.
Most importantly, I focus on training you—the pack leader—so that you can confidently reinforce and apply everything you and your dog have learned in your everyday life.
