We are presently enrolled in the comprehensive training program and Hollie is our trainer. After just a couple of weeks in the program we have seen a near-eradication of the negative behaviors (i.e. lunging on the leash and barking at passersby) that caused us to seek additional training for our dog. This morning a squirrel landed just a couple of feet from my dog. Three weeks ago, before we started training, he would have given me whiplash with a violent jolt, but this morning he simply looked at the squirrel and kept walking with me - amazing! Hollie is a rock star, very patient and always has an answer that is grounded in philosophy for any wild situation we throw at her. We enjoy working with her and team SamIvy and would recommend them to anyone.

We had the best experience with Team SamIvy. Our rescue Beagle Jack was leash aggressive and we had trouble walking him without pulling and barking at any dog that came into his line of vision. There was some skepticism as to whether virtual training would work for Jack, but we were open to the process once we had aloud consultation with Maribel. We were optimistic once the process was explained. Our assigned trainer was Gina. We couldn’t have asked for a better, more professional, patient and overall pleasant person to teach us how to interact with Jack. By the end of the first session we could see he understood commands. The lessons were an hour long and Jack did well. We did our “homework” every day and Jack was responding well to the process. By the last session, Jack was doing so well we ended our session a little early. Gina made us feel comfortable and communication was great. Virtual training may have its critics and skeptics, but we are 100% believers in the this method of training. The cost, while pricey, was worth it. Jack is “new and improved”.

Our trainer Kyle was patient, direct and amazing at explaining the reasons behind the training. We learned so much and our once barky Corgi is now well behaved and calm. We can't say enough about how wonderful this experience was.

I have 3 dogs, all with their own behavioral issues, and I was overwhelmed and desperate for a solution. I was unsure if this training would work because of it being virtual and having to do the work myself, but I had tried board and train programs before and did not like the outcome so I gave it a chance. And I’m so glad I did! Holli has been wonderful in helping me correct certain behaviors and giving me the tools I need to communicate with my dogs so they understand how to behave. I am so thankful! I still have work to do with them but I finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.
