Sami was great with our newly adopted dog, Luna. Luna is very high anxiety and Sami helped us learn to positively reinforce corrected behaviors. Luna is now a happy hound.

Sami is just the best! She took time to really evaluate our dog and work with concerns we had on his confidence and obedience. Everything is so personalized to you, your dog and things you really want to focus on. She is kind, knowledgable, and quickly became Scout's favorite person. We looked forward to our weekly sessions so much and would book more if we weren't moving! If you're searching for a trainer, she's the best in town. You won't regret booking with her!

I can't say enough about how amazing Sami is! Our 2 year old Newfoundland Moose has had behavioral issues ever since we brought him home from the breeder. We tried several trainers for 2 years. Non of them could break him of his relentless counter surfing, excessive barking and bad social manners. He was thrown out of 2 different daycare. A groomer recommended Sami and within the first 2 sessions she completely broke him of counter surfing!! After 6 weeks the change in him was dramatic! We had him board and train with Sami while we were on a 2 week vacation. When we got home he was like a brand new well behaved dog!! We had actually thought of giving him to a rescue program that's how miserable we were with him. Sami changed him and us completely. Now he is an awesome dog. Thank you so much Sami!!!

We loved training with Sami and her dogs. She taught us how to handle other dogs in passings and how to use the prong properly. Definitely will be purchasing more lessons in the future!

We reached out to Sami at The Happy Hound when we adopted our 2nd dog and we couldn’t have asked for a better trainer! We have two very high energy dogs and we definitely had our hands full. She worked with both of our dogs and helped us handle their reactivity towards other dogs on walks, along with helping us get a better understanding of why they were doing the things that they did. She has endless amounts of knowledge in animal behavior! We can’t recommend her enough!!
