Questions & answers

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.
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!

I entered my mini Aussie into 20 day board and train. The price is so worth it. Sit means Sit has given me the tools to work with my reactive dog. The staff is wonderful! Best decision I ever made for my dog. Megan is an absolute miracle worker. She doesn’t just train she trains you how to communicate with them she is simply the best. If you want a trainer who genuinely loves what she does and gets amazing results she’s your person.

Heard of this place from a friend and it was a great training program for my puppy. He's a big boy with a puppy brain so he needed some help with boundaries and day to day structure. He's made huge improvements and is continuing to work on things as he matures.

We started taking our Corgi to Sit Means Sit as soon as we got her because we wanted to get a jump start on training. Having a well-behaved dog was important to us, especially since we want to be able to take her with us to as many places as possible and feel confident that she’s safe, well-mannered, and listens when needed.
Everyone there has been so helpful and friendly from day one. We especially loved the Day Train program. It was a great option for our busy schedule, and it helped our puppy learn so much while also teaching us how to continue working with her at home.
Training is an ongoing process, but we’ve been really happy with the progress she’s made and the support we’ve received along the way. We’d definitely recommend Sit Means Sit to anyone looking for dog training! 🐾❤️

Sit Means Sit is the best!! We were so desperate with our 5 year old dog, Bruno so we did the 10 day board and train program. SO happy we did! It was life changing for our family and Bruno. Even after he completed the training, everyone has been so amazing with questions, suggestions, boarding, group classes, etc. We are so grateful for the Sit Means Sit family!
