"I can't say enough good things about Alex and his team at Ivy League Canine Academy. Our 8 month old rescue puppy Daisy was running our household. Daisy was licking/chewing walls, shredding dog beds, chewing on rocks, shoes anything she could get into her mouth. When walking Daisy, actually when Daisy walked us, she pulled us in whatever direction she wanted to go and was easily distracted. We were at a point of giving up on Daisy. I contacted 2 trainers/training facilities before speaking to Alex. After speaking with Alex, I felt confident Alex and the Ivy League team was the best choice. We chose the 2 week board and train and it has made a world of difference. Alex not only trains your pet, he also trains the owners how to coach and reinforce training. Daisy is now an amazing member of our family. We are able to redirect Daisy confidently and calmly away from unwanted behaviors. She is comfortable with being in place for an extended period of time. Alex updates you daily with videos and teaches you to be an effective coach. Alex brings your pet to you on the final day of training to transition your pet back into your home. Alex and the Ivy league team saved Daisy and us! My husband and I can't say enough about how thankful we are with the results. If you are considering training for your dog or puppy, Alex and the Ivy League Team is the way to go!"

"Alex and the other trainers at Ivy League were truly a blessing to our family! Our Rocky ended up being way more than we could handle when we got him at 6 weeks old. I called Alex and he was able to get us in when Rocky was just 4 months old. All of our tears have turned to hugs and kisses now that we have a well behaved puppy."

"Where do i start! I took my 10 month old AussieDoodle Myla to ILK9 and they did wonders! I could not leave the house without her crying like someone was trying to take her. It was hard to leave the house and have a life because she was so anxious by herself. She was also struggling with her confidence, walking, socialization, and obedience. I decided to enroll her in the 2 week board and train and she came out a different dog! I know every dog training place says they will transform your dog but ILK9 really does/did that. She knows all her obedience cues, heel walking, kennel and kennel training too. Best part is i can put her in her kennel and leave the house without the loud crying! It has helped my life and Mylas too! I definitely recommend taking your dog here, you will not regret it!"

"Definitely recommend!!_We were beyond pleased with the results and the experience with Alex and his team’s training for our crazy goldendoodle Zack. We received daily updates with explanations, tutorials and videos so we understood everything along the way and could witness the results. They were professional, patient, and kind and also spent plenty of time instructing and guiding us to insure we would continue to receive the same results at home. The difference they achieved in 2 weeks was amazing!! We can now safely and happily take our dog anywhere! Thanks so much for everything!"

"Before training, my fiancé and I had our dog, Harmony, for a little over a year. She’s a very anxious dog and gets very stressed when pushed out of her comfort zone. When we attempted to walk her outdoors she would plant herself and refuse to move since she was afraid of being outside of the house. We also found that she would become very defensive when visitors would come to our house. She would become aggressive, bark, growl, everything. This caused us to not be able to bring her around anyone. We decided to try the 2 week board and train program in hopes of at minimum being able to walk Harmony outside. Truthfully, after hearing what the guarantees of the training were, I didn’t believe Harmony would be able to do certain things. She’s such a high anxiety dog that I couldn’t even imagine her walking around in public with so many distractions. But yet we still decided to do it to see the outcome. That’s where our wonderful trainer, Kindra came in. She was so comforting from the start and reassured us that all of our concerns were normal. It made me so happy that she believed Harmony could learn and thrive during and after the training process. Kindra was so patient with Harmony and we couldn’t have asked for a better trainer! After training, Harmony is able to utilize the skills she learned throughout her day and is calmer around visitors. I am absolutely blown away by the work that Kindra did with our Harmony and we will forever be grateful for her and the training program! "
