We first contacted Sam Ivy K9 to correct some behavior issues that our 5 month Old English Bulldog was having; like pulling whenever we walked her, not going to her kennel, jumping on people, and playing too rough with other dogs. Sam Ivy was a great experience for my husband and me. Our dog just graduated from Proper Pack Behavior training and she is doing great; behaving and following instructions. Alexis, our trainer, showed great professionalism, love and care for my dog and always answered promptly any doubts we had. Thank you so much and yes, I recommend it.

We just finished our "Proper Pack Training" with Noura, and couldn't be happier! Our mini Aussie was giving us a run for our money, and this training provided us with the tools to understand, and manage his problem behaviors (such as nipping at kids, jumping up on people, and chasing our cat). The spot training technique is amazing!! Miraculously, our Aussie will now sit and stay on command until released. Noura is a supportive trainer, who was amazing at including our 10, and 12 year old kids in the process. I would absolutely recommend Sam Ivy training to any busy family. They were professional, courteous, and flexible to a busy schedule. I feel that this process has benefited my entire families relationship to our beloved, (and now well behaved) Oliver.

We have 10 dogs in total all was great until cheech and chong came along . at 9 weeks our baby bulldogs were presious and energetic. But at approx 6 months old. Chong became aggressive with our other male english, our 90 pound pit ,his brother and our 14 year old shnauzer. It was so stressfull. Before the puppies we could have all the kids out together and it was fun and chill. With the puppies it was dificult , took more time, and we were both stressed out after a few close calls. We called sam ivy and Claudia was assigned as our trainer. Wow what a difference now. Thank you so much Claudia. What a great learning experience . claudia gave us the tools to be a strong pack leader. and all the kids are out playing together again. Thanks again claudia and Sam

This company is absolutely incredible. From the secretary to my trainer Claudia, everyone I’ve been in contact with has been wonderful and friendly. I have an almost 2 year old maltipoo who had the personality of a grizzly bear in the beginning. Rusty has had aggression issues since early this year and even nipped a couple of people. I didn’t know how to control his aggression and after two trainers, I was losing hope that he could change. In the three weeks that I’ve worked with Claudia so far, Rusty has become an entirely different dog. I can walk him at any time of the day and even take him to Starbucks with me without having to worry about him lashing out at people. I was skeptical at first, but their system really did work. 100% would recommend to anyone. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done!

At 8 months old and 90 lbs, we knew we had to get our puppy, Nera, professionally trained. Sam Ivy was by far the best investment we have made for her. Our trainer, Nicole was great with Nera. She is so knowledgeable and patient. Always a phone call or a text away if we had any questions. The past few weeks have made such a difference for us. Nera is such a well behaved young lady. We get complements on her manners whenever we have company over. We highly recommend Sam Ivy and especially Nicole.

We contacted Sam Ivy after a recommendation from our neighbor. Our one year old female Spitz has a high anxiety personality that couldn't deal well with most other dogs and liked to lunge. We worked with a wonderful trainer Alexis, who showed us how to use simple but direct commands, with the proper collar, to stay in control under all types of situations. We particularly appreciated Alexis coming to us rather than the other way around, demonstrating and coaching us both around home any away locations, and being able to accommodate our training schedule needs. As a result of the training both we and our dog now go anywhere without concern anxiety will get the best of her.

We used Sam Ivy training back in February and got paired up with Jackie. Our 3- year old pittie girl, Fancy, had developed some leash aggression issues and Jackie helped us to fix those in only 3 weeks! At first, I was adverse to the e-collar and negative reinforcement but now seeing how well it worked and how NOT affected my girl is, I'm an advocate. I was concerned about whether it would affect her personality or her attitude but the only change is that she is now a well-mannered pup who still loves her family immensely. It's been a few months since the training ended and we were very pleased with it then but I was triggered to write this review now due to recent circumstances. I just got my first foster dog, Diesel, who had issues of his own. He was resource guarding, food in particular, but then he started guarding me from Fancy. These were not the same issues Fancy had but I was able to pull from the tools Jackie taught me and the background she gave me through Fancy's training to help Diesel. At first I thought I was going to have to give Diesel back but we pushed through it and now he is a beautifully behaved pup! Not to mention, I never would have been able to foster before the Sam Ivy training and now Fancy is a great foster sister. HIGHLY recommend Sam Ivy training - it has continued to pay off for us time and time again!

Sam Ivy K9 and trainer Ryann Dragani worked wonders on my Mastador (Mastiff / Lab mix), Bailey. Being the large dog she is, she was uncontrollable during walks, would be very affectionate towards company (jump on them, sit in their laps, lick excessively, etc) and was very aggressive towards men. Thru this training, my young kids can now walk Bailey, she listens to all her commands and when company is over, she will lay on her bed until she is called for. When out in public, Bailey receives high praises from strangers for her good behavior. I highly recommend this training to anyone having behavioral issues with their dog.
