We appreciate everything you guys did for us and for our dog. We learned a lot and I will definitely recommend to everyone.

Jewelle is not only an amazing trainer; she is an amazing person with a kind heart who loves what she does. I started off with a crazy puppy and ended up with an obedient puppy that is a joy to be around. I can take Loki out in public knowing he will listen to me which gives us both more freedom. Loki will miss Jewelle’s visits.

I cant recommend Sam Ivy K9 Consultants enough. From the moment we contacted them asking about their services, training techniques the level of professionalism was incredible. No hard sale, no push. We had some special concerns regarding our dog, and the staff went out of their way to answer questions. Our home visit lasted over an hour to do an assessment of our goals and agree together on a plan for Molly. Our trainer, Joel, was exceptional ! We looked forward to his visits as much as Molly did. It was unbelievable how easy it was to change 3 years of sassy behavior, jumping on people, pulling so hard during walks. The sessions were held 3 times a week in our home, each one building and practicing new techniques. Joel would demonstrate for us than have each of us perform the commands. His coaching technique was fantastic and Molly truly enjoyed him as well. I've never done a public review like this, but Joel and Sam Ivy have transformed our stubborn English Bull Terrier into a proper lady and we could not be more pleased! If I did not know better, I'd think I owned a Lab !

Alexis, from Sam Ivy K-9 Consultants is amazing. She has really made a big difference with my 7 month old Beagle. She is very polite and friendly. My dog absolutely loves her. I would highly recommend Alexis and Sam Ivy K-9 Consultants to anyone that is looking for a real hands on dog trainer!

We began training our 2 dogs (American bulldog and German Shepherd) in November 2018. After basic obedience we moved into service dog training. Jackie was phenomenal and extremely patient with us and our dogs. Never would we ever had thought our dogs would follow commands so well. The whole program makes so much sense. We would highly recommend the Sam Ivy program and thanks Jackie we appreciate everything you taught us all!!!

Huge shoutout to our trainer Alexis. She was amazing our 1 year old giant schnauzer just graduated from intermittent on leash trainning. We started working with Sam ivy because he is such a high energy dog that wanted to play with everyone while out on walks and pulled hard on the leash. This was an issue especially because of his size and he is only getting bigger. As of today he behaves great on the leash while on walks and even when we take him out to places that allow dogs. Also it was amazing how much we improved his obedience even inside the house, this is the best trainning anyone can get for their doggos!

Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks!? I’ve gained much more than tricks from Sam Ivy’s lifesaving trainer, Alexis! Dante, a 10 year old Yorkie had been through several moves, including internationally, and finally decided he had enough - and so did his momma! The anxiety was showing up largely through aggression to both people and dogs during walks. Flash forward to present day, not only do I no longer dread taking him outside, we are able to enjoy socializing at markets and Little D can even successfully walk off-leash!! It’s hard to believe that this little fur ball was at one time bringing me to tears in fear of walking him and the poor passersby could barely hear my attempted apologies over his outbursts. I can’t thank enough, Tampa Bay’s Dog Whisperer, Alexis, for helping my furry friend and I to both experience more peace and less fear. In addition to her ability to communicate clearly with the pack-leader-in-training, she also has a true gift of understanding dog-alities. Just like people, dogs have different temperaments and preferences. Alexis is able to swiftly pick up on said dog language, whether it is the dog-in-training or another encountered in public, leading one to avoid unfavorable experiences and have a better understanding of dogs. An additional thanks to furry friend, Marley, for his depth of patience and great assistance in socialization. This most certainly was an investment worth making. THANK YOU!

Sam's technique solved issues of prey behavior by our dog towards the new cat. There were also uncontrolled problems with the dog that were quickly brought in line. The level we finally settled on was fairly priced and the trainer assigned, Joel, was dedicated and professional. And, as to methods involving the prong collar and e-collar, they are effective and not the least bit abusive of the dog despite the bad press they receive. Proper and educated use of these tools turned our dog around in the first two days. Sam Ivy is one of the best in the business. Now, the new cat owns the dog.
