"Sam has been helping us since Charlie became a part of our family, as a puppy, in August 2016. Sam not only helped us train and reinforce basic commands, but she's been able to help us with concerns regarding anxiety and over reliance on me (the mother) that manifested in protective aggression towards my husband. Now, they are more bonded and it's sweet to watch Charlie seeking my husband's attention. Sam is professional and strives to assess the entirety of the situation to provide solid, actionable guidance and technique to address/modify the behavior. She involves the entire family in the process so everyone understands how to reinforce behavioral changes. Just as important, she checks in on how things are going in case she needs to tweak her prescribed methods. Beyond that, it is obvious that she loves animals and strives to ensure the owner/pet relationship remains strong and healthy. It's hard to imagine how we would have gotten through the puppy years without her. If you are looking for an effective, caring trainer then I highly recommend Sam."

'I brought Knox home with me for Christmas and my brothers family has a one year old Yorkiepoo. I was worried about how they would get along and how Knox would do. All week he’s been exhibiting GREAT play behavior - bows, back and forth, relaxed mouth. He’s super comfortable with the other dog. It’s so nice to watch. Thank you for making this possible!!
You really did change our lives! He doesn’t hide behind me and he’s so much more confident. I don’t think he’ll ever love being around a lot of dogs off leash, but he’s totally confident one on one. And knows how to remove himself when he’s tired or needs a break."
