Our Siberian Husky "louie" is a very good dog but he did have certain negative traits. He would jump on us and other people. He was mouthy but never broke skin. This is our 3rd husky but we never had them previously trained. Their traits were different. Louie is loving dog, and loves every one, but as he roughed it up at times with us, we were getting anxious and frustrated. Also walking him was a hassle from him pulling all the time. We couldn't find a trainer to come to the house, and didn't want to take him anywhere. While searching through the internet we came across the SamIvy program. We loved the whole concept of online training, and they provided all the necessary training tools.
We had an awesome trainer. Nate was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and a great personality. He always explained the program so we could understand everything. We couldn’t believe how much louie has changed. It was so cool . Walking him without pulling is amazing. Our neighbors constantly commits on how he changed. Louie continues to work a few things but we are so proud of him, and we owe it all to Nate. The weeks regarding our training went so fast.
We want to thank Nate for his excellent support throughout. We also want to thank this company for creating a program like this.
Thank you all so very much

My goldendoodle Rocky was biting, jumping, and taking over. We seeked help from Sam Ivy and results were immediate. Our trainer Emily was kind, VERY patient, and supportive of us and our dog. Within a few classes our dog was learning the correct way to behave. I won't lie and say the journey wasn't hard but with time you will recieve the respect you deserve from your dog. Emily even gave us help with grooming, and how to take our dog to public places. He listens to the word "NO," and knows right from wrong. This is thanks to Sam Ivy's training, and Emily's guidance. Thank you so much Emily, - Rocky and the Mesidor family

When Sam Ivy takes you and your dog on as clients, they really commit. I've been training my dog with them since last summer, and they've really been there for me through every victory, every setback, everything. They've kept my spirits up when I feel hopeless about a problem we're having, and then they guide me through to find the solution. The balanced training tools and methods we've learned have brought us leaps and bounds forward in my dog's behavior as well as our bond. Their Zoom sessions are really convenient and effective, and those sessions are recorded and uploaded for reference later. Clients are provided a tripod and encouraged to film their practice sessions so the trainers can give feedback. Sessions are one-on-one so that the trainer can really focus on your dog and your needs. I can't recommend them enough.

Our dog Bandit has food aggression issues and resource guarded certain items. He also played a vicious game of grabbing items and playing keep away. Our trainer Miguel worked with us and provided us with the tools to curb the aggression and teach Bandit how to respect us as the pack leaders. I admire Miguel's knowledge of dogs and his understanding of their primal habits. Miguel taught us how to get into the mindset of a dog and become the pack leader. Within days and over the course of our training, Bandit transitioned into a different dog. He became more submissive and obedient. But frankly, the real training occurred with us humans. We are likely to enroll Bandit in the off leash training once we master the entry level obedience and aggression. Miguel, you are the best my friend! Thank you!
