Glory, Our Cream Golden Retiever @ 16 Mos.. Old was Quite the Divia and the Leader of Our Family Pack. Our Sam Ivy K-9 Trainer Gina Coughlin walked through Our Door to a Frisky, Jumping All Over Her, 16 Month Glory Doggie. We All Connected with Gina @ that Moment, With Her Kind, Compassionate and Stern ways, She Taught Us And Glory what is and is Not Acceptable, from that Moment on. When Visitors come to Our door, Glory does Not, 1st run Out the Door and 2nd Does Not Jump on them, Sits Calmly waiting for a Pet. Glory is a Calm, Loving and Joyful Part of Our Family! We Can't Thank Sam Ivy K-9 Consultants and Our Trainer/Friend, Gina Coughlin for Changing Our and Glory's Lives.

My Greyhound is a recent graduate of the intermediate off leash training program and I can’t say enough about how great this experience was. My Greyhound was returned 3 times before I adopted him. He had jumping on people issues, anxiety issues, some behavioral issues and I was extremely frustrated and didn’t know how to handle him. I called Sam Ivy, and the entire experience was easy from start to finish. A consultant came out, helped us with the program to pick. Our trainer Jackie arrived about a week or so later and she was a life saver! We learned proper pack behavior, I learned how to become the alpha and eventually we moved onto fun stuff like command training. My dog and I have bonded so much because of this training and I am no longer frustrated with my pup or afraid he’s going to jump on someone and hurt them. Highly recommend, will use them again if I ever need. Jackie is always available to help and puts her heart into it. It was a pleasure working with her. Thank you Jackie and the rest of the team!!!

I have gone through SIX trainers. Nicole, who is a Sam Ivy trainer, provided, by far, the best training EVER! I have 4 dogs, different ages, temperament, and self confidence. I was facing a situation where I had to give away one or two due to my inability to have a safe environment for all of them. I rolled the dice for one last try with Sam Ivy. After the initial consultation I was doubtful of his promises, but it was either go for it or risk losing one or two of them. Well, after just THREE WEEKS I am in complete amazement! They respect me, each other, and boundaries! They wait for permission to leave their crates, to walk through doorways, and not a SINGLE growl or act of aggression towards each other, even when taunted with food! I have spent over $10,000 In training, to no avail! Sam Ivy (through Nicole), have finally provided me with the SKILLS and CONFIDENCE to keep them all....safe, confident, and under MY control... This is all after a month! I will now go as far as I can with them... Goal? SERVICE DOG LEVEL! The MOST affordable and the MOST effective training of all!
