We have a toy poodle who was in charge of our home and we jumped when he said "jump". Constantly growling, barking and snapping at people. If he grabbed your shoe, sock, fabric sheet, etc., we had to run and get treats to retrieve whatever item he had in his mouth. He wouldn't let Maureen picked him up, he would show his teeth and growl. No more. We call Sam Ivy. Enlisted in the training program and we finally have our home back. He has been retrained with the help of fantastic trainer, Gina Avitabile, we were able to command respect again and take charge of our home. Toby is much more relax and understands that he is safe and we are in charge. Thank you Gina. Can't thank you enough for your excellent training skills. Would recommend Sam Ivy to anyone who has issues with their dog. Can't wait to start the next training program

Yesterday my 6 month old Dalmatian, Domino completed his intermediate on leash training. He is amazing! Sam sent us Miguel and Miguel worked a miracle. First he trained me - then he trained Domino! My house went from chaos and insanity to peace and serenity . . . Do it. It's well worth the investment.

My family is so grateful for the wonderful training Gina provided. My puppy Bruno was stubborn, suffered from separation anxiety, and was in control of our life. My family couldn't even leave the house without him. Thankfully we heard of Sam Ivy 9K Consultants and every penny was worth it. My furry son Bruno has made such an improvement with his behavior. We are overall thankful for all the tips and training that Gina provided to our family. I highly recommend her as a trainer, she change my puppy's life and ours for the better. Thank you!

After we adopted our dog buffalo a 3 year old catahoula leopard dog we realized he had some obedience issues. First walk we went on he went completely bonkers and tried to attack another dog, he was aggressive towards other dogs, mouthy with us, refused to go in his crate, was very anxious and had anxiety if we left the room even to go to the bathroom. I found Sam Ivy on a Facebook ad and instantly contacted them after reading reviews. We met and liked what we heard, our trainer was Gina and from the first time we met her we instantly knew this was a good fit. Gina was very understanding of our situation, and throughout the entire process she addressed every issue we had, the first glorious moment was when I was able to sweep the house without buffalo being right under my feet, we could go in the bathroom without him scratching the door. Gina helped us gain control of buffalo by utilizing the tools we were given. Now we are coming upon graduation and our dog buffalo is now able to go on a walk, see another dog and not even flinch. He is so much calmer and doesn’t follow us everywhere in the house. We can go outside and he doesn’t freak out. He is able to sit and enjoy being with us in the back yard. After several weeks of training it is like having the dog we always dreamed of having. I not only recommend Sam Ivy and the program I highly recommend Gina as your trainer, she was absolutely amazing. Now I’m not only reading great reviews about her and her success, I am now one of her successful clients and we couldn’t be more thankful.
