Do you work with pit mixes? Ours is 6 years old, has been through an expensive training class, and is getting increasingly aggressive. She has began to snap at family.
Our dog is a mIx, not sure what, but he dis very well!

Absolutely incredible experience! The facility is spotless, and the trainers are not only kind and patient but also genuinely passionate about dogs. Their extensive knowledge and dedication truly set them apart. Daisy had an amazing four-week puppy school experience—she was always excited to go and loved every moment. Throughout the program, we dropped her off once a week in the morning and picked her up in the evening. Each pickup included a one-hour, one-on-one session where the trainers walked us through everything Daisy had learned, ensuring we knew how to reinforce her training at home. They were always patient, eager to answer our questions, and encouraged us to reach out via phone or email during business hours if we ever needed additional guidance—which I did, and it was incredibly helpful! One of the best parts of Sit Means Sit is that training doesn’t stop after the initial program. They offer lifetime group classes, and even after completing the program, I can still call or email with any questions. While Sit Means Sit may seem pricey at first, it’s truly a worthwhile investment. For example, if training costs $3,500 and your dog lives for 10 years, that’s just $6 per week for a lifetime of expert training, ongoing support, and peace of mind. Investing in Sit Means Sit is investing in both your dog’s well-being and your own confidence as a pet owner. I highly recommend it!
This is the very best dog training that I have ever seen in my life. It is absolutely amazing what they can do with your pet in one week. It is absolutely unbelievable.

Sit Means Sit is An excellent place for you and your pup(s). After the unexpected passing of my husband, I found myself alone with 2 six month old puppies. I have had puppies before, but never two by myself. I was having difficulty with excessive barking, pulling on their leads when walking, and with potty-training. After a month of once a week day-long training, my pups and I are much happier. The trainers are extremely knowledgeable about canine behavior and took expert care of my pups. The best part of the experience was that when I came to pick them up, the trainer worked with me so that I understood what the pups had learned that day and could continue working on those skills at home. I've been encouraged to attend group classes with the pups and know that even though the individual training is over, our relationship with the staff is not over. This is a lifelong partnership. They are there for you!

(Vasco Nunez de) Balboa and I have really learned alot and have enjoyed our time spent with Heather, Reece and the gang. My lil fur homie is much more settled, more behaved and more calm than before his training yet still very alert. We take walks now without all of the pulling and tugging and I see him becoming more confident as the days and weeks go by. The group training is an additional great value benefit. Very pleased with his progress. Thanks ladies
