We had a unruly 2 year old German shepherd named Ruger that was full of energy and at times uncontrollable. We found ourselves overwhelmed and on the brink of Re homing him. We brought him to sit means sit and right a way I could tell JP knew what he was talking about and that he genuinely wanted to help us. We signed up for the 15 day board and train program and after the first week alone we could tell a major difference. Now that ruger has completed the program we are blown away and very pleased with the outcome. It has change our lives and rugers in a short time frame. I would highly recommend using them to anyone in a similar situation as we were in. We will definitely use them again in the future.

We love Sit Means Sit. We did the board and train with our dog Fiona, JP and Kelly have been quick to have us back for mini training sessions whenever we need to make sure Fiona stays on her best behavior. Highly recommend!

Sit means Sit is fantastic! The collar training has been great for my stubborn two year old German Shepherd. I was hesitant in doing collar training at first, but having done the training, I believe it is a completely necessary tool for training a dog properly. You will 100% see results in the first week. JP, the trainer and owner of the Richmond location has been nothing but awesome working with my dog. He really takes the time to work with and correct each individual dog’s behavioral problems and needs! I can’t thank Sit Means Sit enough.

JP has been very patient with helping me to help my dog build confidence. He is always willing to stay after group sessions to address any specific concerns we have and is willing to try multiple techniques until we find what works for us. He is super patient and you can tell that he absolutely loves dogs.

Friendly staff. Not my cup of tea. They use shock training.
