Questions & answers

From Google

What people have asked about this business.

How do you handle a dog who’s aggressive and scared?

Great question Matt! Handling a dog that's both aggressive and scared requires a combination of patience, understanding, and effective training techniques. It's crucial to avoid escalating the situation by not provoking the dog or putting them in stressful situations. Understanding the root cause of the dog's aggression and fear is essential. Identifying these triggers allows us to develop a targeted training plan. Positive reinforcement techniques are key in addressing this behavior. We focus on rewarding calm and non-aggressive behaviors while gradually desensitizing the dog to their triggers. This might involve creating a safe and comfortable environment for the dog, providing mental stimulation, and engaging in activities that build trust and confidence. Consistency is paramount in our training approach. We establish clear boundaries and expectations for the dog's behavior, ensuring that everyone involved in their care follows the same guidelines.

Question on Google
Do you expose dogs to different environments and situations during training?

This is our favorite. During our trainings we train around many other dogs, go on field trips all around the community and of course our group classes are where we create confidence building drills for real life scenarios. You can find us at Scheels, Home Depot, Lowes, surrounding parks, pet stores, outside of dog parks, and more!

Absolute miracle workers! We have two almost 2-year-old corgis who we called the "sled dogs." Now they walk perfectly next to me, no pulling. Barking and pesty behavior is also greatly reduced.

Caring and knowledgeable trainers who want you and your dog to succeed. Updated: about 10 months out from boarding/training and doing the weekly group classes and still highly recommended. Updated: almost 2 years out from original boarding and would still highly recommend. Sending a second dog in for training..

I feel much more at ease bringing my dog to public places, off leash hikes / walks, and around children after her training at sit means sit. It has become more apparent as time has gone on how much better behaved she is and this lasting effect (despite the fact that she was an older dog) was well worth it. Thank you for the team for their awesome work!

What a great place. I took my six-year-old lab in there that I had just rescued for basic training and it was amazing the animal that I got back. She is so much more fun and easier to take with me, I just can't say enough good. The trainers were easy to work with answered all my questions and we're fun. I will definitely be back for more training. I've also used their Kennels and that was also a great experience. When I need Kennels that's where I call First.

We love the girls at Sit Means Sit. They have worked wonders with our rescue Ella. She is a very headstrong 4 year old Red Healer. We have only had her for two months. We signed her up for their training / obedience classes. After the first couple of days we noticed a much calmer dog. They have been very patient with us as "parents" teaching us the proper techniques to give all of us a great experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is having obedience issues with their dog. You can certainly tell everyone there loves what they do and is fully vested in the care of our pets.
