Our puppy Dante was struggling with fear-based aggression. He barked, nipped, and we worried we would never have people in our home again. A private trainer we tried before couldn’t handle his size or behavior.
Then we found Sam Ivy. Our trainer Jillan has been incredible. She guided us step by step, answered every question, and made training fun and manageable. She even helped us reintroduce Dante to friends and new situations with confidence.
Now Dante can go to the dog park, meet new people, and even walk through the pet store calmly to pick his own new toy. He listens, respects commands, and no longer nips or jumps. The transformation is night and day. We wouldn’t have the dog we have today without this program.
I don't know how I could ever think Jillan for her knowledge, kindness, and friendship.
