We got our sweet Calvin at around 4 months old. While he had many pros - great with our kids, loving, playful - we had some work to do in the potty-training department. This guy would go anywhere and everywhere in the house, and would often pee when scared (and he was scared of EVERYTHING). He also had no issue going in his crate, which just added to the chaos. After one-to-many bottles of stain remover and cases of paper towels, we decided we needed help. Emily was our assigned trainer and she was absolutely fantastic. It took a few weeks of strict discipline, but I am am beyond thrilled to say that we are almost 10 days now incident free, and you can tell by Calvin's body language that he understands where and when is the proper time to do his business. He is also more obedient and FAR MORE accepting of his environment (less scared = less pee). Some say the program is pricey, but think of it as a long-term investment. I highly recommend both Sam Ivy and especially Emily, who was simply fantastic!

We had a very challenging rescued dog and Sam Ivy and our trainer Thuylinh made a HUGE difference for our family. When we started our Ruthie was afraid to go outside for walks and when we did she pulled uncontrollably. Sam Ivy’s techniques were very effective: we created a lot of structure and Ruthie became more and more confident. She is a pleasure to walk now, she learned “down” and “stay” and “heel” and is much more easy to work with and a much more happy dog now that she is less afraid. Our trainer “T” was amazing. Super responsive and helpful and she cares SO much. Remarkable!

My husband and I have 2 French bulldogs that we thought would never listen to us! They are known to be stubborn so we just thought we had to deal with it. Once we found Sam Ivy we knew this would be the key to having well behaved dogs. Nate, our instructor, taught us with so much detail how to become Alpha to our dogs! Everyone that knew our dogs before they had training said they are completely different dogs. We never thought we would be able to have these dogs as well behaved as they are now! Thank you Sam Ivy!!
