Sam Ivy K9 Consultants Inc. has a program that truly works for transforming dogs of all temperaments and backgrounds. My Max was a rescue from a hoarding situation with severe fear aggression which contributed to issues such as resource guarding, intense leash pulling, and incessant barking. Max now stays on spot when we have guests over or when I'm bringing in groceries, he knows his "drop it" command and NEVER shows us aggression. He heels on walks and is a BOSS at obedience. Before completing Proper Pack Behavior and Intermediate On-Leash, I dreaded taking him on a walk in the neighborhood. Now, I can take him to my husband's dirt bike races, into Lowe's, and to the park without any fear of him lashing out. He views my husband and I as pack leaders and he trusts us like I never would have thought possible.
Gina was the true key factor in helping us build a new relationship with Max by listening to our frustrations and targeting them directly. She was understanding when we needed to cancel and helped us out when we had questions via text in-between sessions. When Max hit road bumps along the way, Gina took the time to find solutions. She celebrated small victories with us and was so proud of Max for how far he came over the course of the program. I am so happy we were paired with Gina - she seemed to be the perfect trainer for our family.
Max is graduating tonight and I'm forever grateful that I found Sam Ivy K9 Consultants Inc. and Gina.
