What people have asked about this business.

What is I cit dog training

CIT stands for Canine Initiative Training LLC. We offer convenient in home private dog training and focus heavily on education for both owner and their pets. Since dogs did not take a class in English (or any human language) pre-birth, we help bridge the gap of communication for the owners while teaching dogs what to do or not to do, based on what the owners prefer.

Our Golden Retriever is just over 1 year old, and we were referred to Will by one of his clients. Over 5 sessions, some of the areas we focused on were proper walking techniques including handling distractions, staying on a bed, learning to stop at a designated barrier until given permission to move, limit jumping when greeting someone, and riding in a car in a calmer manner. Will was professional, on time, and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend Will's service.

$100 for a consultation with only going over what services will be provided is a total waste of money. That information can be provided over the phone or on a website for free so people are not wasting money just for you to sit there and go over what you can do. Found another trainer who did free consultation for an hour and charges much more reasonably per hour rate.

Will is very knowledge, he knows your dogs body langauge. My dog Bella was very afraid/agressaive towards strangers and dogs. She has come so far. With only 5 lessons . She Can actually sit and stay with very little to no reaction to other dogs/people now. I highly recommend CIT. Wil knows his stuff!!!

We utilized Will with CIT to help train our 2 year old male miniature schnauzer that needed some core training before the arrival of our first baby. Within the first lesson there was already a huge difference with our dog. Will is very thorough in explaining, walking you through and giving you the knowledge to continue working with your dog after he leaves. We did 5 lessons and from the first lesson to the last, there has been a noticeable improvement. Do keep in mind, that the training will only work if you keep working with your dog between lessons, which Will does a good job of teaching you the tools to do so. 10/10 would utilize CIT again, and would recommend to family and friends looking to train their dog!

My family and I are very pleased with the outcome of working with Will. He was very informative and patient which was highly appreciated. This is our first dog and we were very nervous about getting help with him and unsure that he was trainable. We quickly realized that this was not the case. Our dog milo went from being completely insane around any person that was not family, to being able to walk through a park without much difficulty after 5 sessions. Will did an amazing job and I would highly recommend him to anyone with a “difficult” dog that needs some help ◡̈
