Let our expert Dog Behavior Coaches show you how to establish peace and harmony with your dog.
Are you feeling helpless, anxious and ashamed because of your dog's aggression, separation anxiety, destructive behaviors, excessive barking, or pulling? You are not alone!
Schedule your Free Consultation with one of our Dog Behavior Experts today. In a 60 min no-obligations Zoom consultation you will learn:
Why your dog is behaving this way and exactly what to do about it
Why Virtual Dog Behavior Coaching will get you results - fast and easy - even when all other training attempts have failed
We Will Giude You To Peace And Harmony With Your Dog.
If your dog's behavior is out of control, they are challenging you and ignoring all the boundaries you are trying to set.
Hiring a dog trainer to teach them a few obedience commands will not solve the problem!
Instead you need to learn how to build a new relationship with your dog - one that is based on respect, trust and love.
In your Zoom training course with one of our experienced dog behavior coaches, you will get:
real insight into your dog's behavior and exactly how to change it
the training tools and techniques that professionals use
and the 1 on 1 guidance and instructions on how to use them the right way
Getting real results is fast and easy! And since you will have all the knowledge the results will last.
If you let someone else train your dog for you, your dog will learn to respect and listen to that person - and not you.
All the behavior problems will come back right after the training ends. With our proven method, you are the one taking the reins.
All of our dog behavior coaching sessions are done via Zoom and are recorded for you. You get your own client portal with access to your personal library of recorded lessons with your behavior coach.
But we don't stop there. When working with us, you can reach out to your personal trainer anytime with all additional questions you might have.
Depending on where you live, you might not have access to professional dog trainers with enough experience to help you fast and efficiently.
All our dog behavior experts have years of experience. With us, you can rest assured that you are always in the best hands.
You will see real results when your dog can stay in a familiar environment and without the distracting presence of a stranger in your home.
Learn distraction-free with personal guidance by one of our experts. It's simply the best foundation for building a happier relationship with your dog.

What no one else tells you about dog training
Why proper pack behavior equals proper manners
To enroll in one of our training courses, please schedule a free consultation. The consultation gives us a chance to learn a bit more about your situation with your dog and what your training goals are. We will then make a suggestion for the training program that best fits your needs. You can start meeting with your personal dog trainer as soon as the next day in many cases.
No, all training happens virtually through Zoom or FaceTime. Your dog is so accustomed to technology that it won’t bat an eye at a talking phone or laptop, providing us the ability to see how your dog acts without our presence causing distraction. This approach allows us to model techniques and correct your form while providing you the biggest advantage: Your dog is learning from YOU. This means that you are earning your dog’s respect and you are learning the skills you need to create permanent results in your dog’s training.
Why In-Home Dog Training with the trainer visiting in person is not ideal:
No, we believe that separating the dog from the owner for training is the wrong approach and can be a costly mistake for two main reasons: Your dog’s temperament plays a vital role in what effect being completely severed from you, its home or den, and all things familiar will have: Some dogs are completely traumatized by the experience - even despite the attentive care of the trainer. Your dog may be kept in a crate for extended periods of time when not actively training and, as a result, may become depressed and stop eating. The other major issue with boarding and training is the fact that you, the owner, are not involved in the training. When the dog listens to the trainer, will that mean the dog will listen to you? Your dog may very well learn to respect the trainer, but unless the dog learns to also respect you, the obedience will never transfer to you and all gains made during “bootcamp” will soon be lost.
Why boarding and training is not ideal:
Yes, we have handled many court cases before and we can provide you with all the necessary documentation.
When you are dealing with serious behavior issues like aggression and or destructive behaviors, it is especially important that you become an unquestioned authority in your dog’s eyes. To establish this role, you must educate your dog in its native language. We’ve developed a program that, through teaching you professional dog handling techniques, allows you to establish yourself as superior to your dog in the pack hierarchy. Your dog will begin to defer to your judgment in all of its decisions. This this frees your dog of worries about the safety of your pack and relieves it of the burden of making its own decisions - a state your dog will prefer.
Pet stores, parks, and boarding facilities are all fundamentally flawed for dog training. They all contain new smells, distractions, and visual stimuli. It’s no wonder your dog can’t focus. Even if you bring a trainer into your home to teach your dog, now your dog has to acclimate to a new person in its den which can cause excitement, anxiety, aggression, or a mixture of these emotions—all of which are not ideal states of mind to be in for learning. You must be an unquestioned authority in your dog’s eyes. To establish this role, you must educate your dog in its native language. We’ve developed a program that, through teaching you proper dog handling techniques, allows you to establish yourself as superior to your dog in the pack hierarchy. Your dog will begin to defer to your judgment in all of its decisions. Not only will your dog understand what you want, but you will also receive 100% compliance. You should not have to say sit five times before your dog complies nor should your dog get back up before you give permission.
Yes, our training programs are structured to allow you to easily upgrade to the next level of training once you are finished with your current course. To move on to the next level in training, you only have to pay the difference in price between the training courses.
You will meet with your trainer 2-3 times per week depending on your availability. We will do our best to accommodate your schedule - evening and weekend sessions are available. The training sessions are about an hour long. In addition, you should plan in about 30 minutes each day for “homework” to practice with your dog dog in between training sessions.The Proper Pack Behavior training course, which is the foundation for all other training programs, typically takes about 5-6 weeks to complete. But you should see a significant improvement in your dog’s behavior after just a handful of sessions.
Yes, we offer military and first responder discounts. Please contact us for details.

At Sam Ivy K9, we pride ourselves on having an outstanding team of expert canine behavior consultants with more than 100 years of combined experience. Every team member is determined and passionate about helping dog owners to form a new, healthy, and happy bond with their beloved canine companion.
[...] Topaz and I went to three different trainers before finally returning to Sam Ivy and once we started training with Sam Ivy everything changed. Topaz stopped having his tantrums [...]
Our experience with Sam Ivy has been a game-changer for us [...] We were dealing with so many issues from aggression towards other dogs and people to leash pulling I mean I couldn't even walk [...]
[...] We were in crisis mode with our puppy who was destroying things in our home, barking incessantly, nipping at our children, and when we came to Sam Ivy we saw within the first two classes immediate results [...]
[...] We have a nine-month-old golden doodle puppy he's about 55 pounds now [...] just within just a few weeks of training Gina has helped us a lot to get Coco to be a better family member [...]
[...] I was assigned Maribel as my trainer and we met together several times a week via Zoom [...] she would train me and watch me train my dog she was able to give me real-time corrections and feedback [...]
[...] we needed help with our two boxer dogs they're great dogs but typically high energy [...] we started working with our trainer Freddie on those behaviors on making sure they understood who was in charge [...]
Our dog had been showing signs of aggression and would absolutely attack our front door whenever a delivery driver would come to our house. We finally realized that we had to stop ignoring the problems and looked to Sam Ivy for help.
We were certainly skeptical about the Zoom training formats, WE WERE COMPLETELY WRONG. Our dog is a completely different pup now. He listens, doesn't try to attack dogs on walks, and he quietly sits as delivery drivers come to our door.
I am so happy with SamIvy and our trainer Maribel. I enrolled in the virtual proper pack course and I wished I would have done this so much sooner!
I loved the flexibility of the zoom classes. You have to be willing to put in the work, but my dog seems so much happier with structure in his life. Thank you SamyIvy!
