"I first met Sam when we were in Desperate need to train our sweet Bingo. At our initial meeting Sam was able to read Bingo properly and gave us all the information we needed to help us commit to BNT which was the best decision ever. Bingo spent 5 weeks working with Sam and was completely transformed from the when he first met her. I love that we are able to stay in contact with Sam and she is always willing to listen and give me advice with how Bingo is doing. Sam has a passion for K9’s and this is seen through her work with them."

"Our sweet boy Max had been through puppy training but somewhere along the way he developed a terrible fear of the car and was a nightmare on walks (hes 100lbs and only a year old). Our previous trainer wasn't able to help so we began to look elsewhere to help him with his absolute fear of the car and leash walking. We found Sam and through his BNT time with her, he not only got through his fear, he came home a confident, happy and obedient dog that we can actually take for a walk instead of him dragging us along the way. We watched her in action with him and she knew exactly how to tailor her trainings to him for successful outcomes. We can never thank her enough for taking him on and taking the time to help him through his fears and clean up his house manners while also taking him out and about to expose him to other dogs and environments. Sam treated him like one of her own for the time that he was with her and was just as excited when max conquered his fear as we were. Yes, the BNT is a financial commitment 100% and I waffled on it too, but now seeing how far he has come has been amazing and has opened so many doors for him in our family adventures that we didn't think would be possible."

"Sam is an amazing trainer. She transformed our dog after just 5 weeks of the board and train! He still stayed his lovable self, but with much more training! Now I can leave my dog in a down or place and walk out of the room and he does NOT move!!! We cannot thank Sam enough for training Lincoln and turning him into a dog that I don't have to worry about anymore. I used to have to hold him when guests would come over, he would run away and bolt out the door, he would go crazy over seeing other dogs and now all of that has been resolved! Sam was hands on, detailed, patient and incredibly knowledgeable!!! I highly recommend Sam and Blackhawk K-9 to anyone looking to send their dog for training!"

"Sam is an amazing trainer and when I say this, I’m saying this as someone who’s gone to bigger dog training facilities. I had private lessons with her for my fear aggressive shepherd. My shepherd is now a completely different dog because of how she TRAINED ME. She told me it would be a lot of work and I kept it up so my dog could live his life to the fullest. Sam explained things in a way that made sense and if it didn’t, she would show you. For us, she couldn’t just take the lead with my dog so for her to show how I need to implement a training method without my dog, illustrates how devoted she is to her clients. She adapts to her environment and really strives to be there for you and your dog. She is wonderful and very knowledgeable on reactivity and how to live a life around that reactivity. I would recommend her for anyone who wants to live fully with their dog, reactive or not. She chooses the best training method that the dog responds to and makes them comfortable and happy. I was able to witness some of her BNTs and they were amazing as well because she puts her all into her training. That’s what you want in a dog trainer!"
