Client Testimonials

"We have been to different trainers for our dogs, but none like Sam. She has helped improve our dogs' leash walking, their reactivity to other dogs, animals and people tremendously. She is always in contact with you if any appointments need to be cancelled or if you have any other needs with your dog. No matter how difficult or stressful your dog's behavior is, Sam listens, understands and helps with it. She is a person who earns your dogs love and helps you a lot to improve your relationship with your dog. Excellent training service with Sam."

"Korey the Kanine provides a proven and successful, stepwise methodology for service dog and obedience training. Sam's knowledgeability, expertise and fit to purpose approach is beyond exceptional. Woven throughout her interactions and program, her understanding and love of dogs is clear and imminent. She works tirelessly to help handlers achieve their goals- in shaping a lifelong companion and partner, and brings massive purpose to the lives of the dogs she touches."

"The training we received from Sam was truly life changing and worth every single penny! After just two sessions of training we saw huge improvement in the behavior areas we targeted. My dog loved working with Sam because she was so engaging, knowledgable, and clearly has an incredible connection with animals. I feel so empowered having these strategies to help my dog, and my dog loves having "jobs" and knowing what to do. Specifically, we worked on walking, aggression towards other dogs/people on walks, over excitement when guests arrive, and barking all the time in the house. I was amazed how Sam had specific, informed techniques to redirect my dog and help her learn new behaviors in a really positive and encouraging way. Now when we have someone ring the door my dog has a routine, waits in her spot, and won't leave until the guest approaches her. If she starts to bark, we have a few strategies Sam taught us and it's just so great to not have to worry about her aggressive barking rants any more. Truly, I could go on and on. I strongly recommend you choose Sam if you need any training! Her time and expertise is worth every single penny!"

"Sam and Korey have radically changed training for my Atlas (DAD Trainee). Sam has gone above and beyond making sure that Atlas and I both were comfortable with training and making sure I knew the ropes when she wasn’t around. Atlas is only 16 months old and gets compliments on his behavior in any situation, staying calm when so many distractions are taking place. If it wasn’t for Sam, I would not have been able to have had my diabetic service dog. I am forever thankful!!!"

"I cannot say enough about my dog’s experience at Sam’s..she is a wonderful trainer. My dog (Asher a silver lab) was with her for 2 weeks. He was like a different dog when I got him back. He learned a list of commands during his stay that we work on daily. He was fully crate trained. He was biting and pretty wild before she got him and when I got him back he was more structured and willing to learn. Now he’s a wonderful lab dog. Give her a try, you will be glad you did."

Jeff & Asher 🐾

"Wonderful experience! Very professional, knowledgeable, prepared, and fun! My dog loves her and is learning all the things we discussed in the consultation. I would absolutely recommend Sam if you have a dog who’s having behavior trouble or who just needs a little guidance in manners."

“At first, I was kind of skeptical doing training through Zoom. It did not matter with Korey and Sam, however! They make it so fun and exciting. Korey and Sam are on point. From teaching you basic commands, all the way to DAD training. Winston and I are only 4 months into training and he knows his highs from his low blood sugars, brings me juice and I have strengthened my bond with him. You can’t go wrong with Korey and Sam; they are doing amazing work helping myself and others have an extra layer of protection to help with our diabetes.”
