Question on Google
Where do your training lessons take place?

One of our biggest training philosophies is tackling any training issue at the root of the problem, which is usually away from the home under distracting environments. That being said, we encourage both private and group training sessions at our facility or in a public setting that we refer to as “field trips”! If there are specific issues at your home, we offer lessons there to tackle those specific issues. If you have more questions about our programs, give us a call or fill out the form on our website.

Jo and Isabel did a great job training my dog in only 3 sessions. Such a difference. I’ll be recommending friends and family to sit means seat.

My husband and I brought our one year old wild puppy here and it was truly the best decision that we made. Our dog has learned so many new commands and actually is following them at home! The staff is absolutely incredible. From the owner, to the front desk, to their trainers! Their trainer Jo is truly so incredible! She is very personable and extremely amazing with our dog! Jo is great at teaching not only just our dog but also us! She always answers any questions we have and shows us everything! We can always tell at pick up that our dog absolutely loves Jo and has had the best day! We truly cannot say enough good things about this program and the staff!

Our trainer at sit means sit did an amazing job with our puppy! Having a dog that is a German Shepard/shar pei mix, we were very nervous about how she would listen to us and react to other dogs. They worked with her over the course of 3 classes, and I feel so much better knowing that my pup has an excellent understanding of all the basic commands. I also love that she was put into environments with other dogs, and we were able to see her calm demeanor and I feel confident we can take her out and about without issue. Our trainer also set us up with the tools and advice we needed to keep improving at home. I would recommend sit means sit to anybody with a new puppy who wants to instill good habits early on!

Sit Means Sit Dog Training in Cicero NY is a fantastic business. My wife and I are both very pleased with the results we have quickly seen from our dog's training with both Nick and Jo. You can tell right away that they are professional trainers and are trying to set your dog up for success. Everyone at the business is super friendly and very knowledgeable. It's reassuring to know that we can take advantage of the group training even after her initial classes are done. If you are thinking about dog training for any reason, Sit Means Sit is worth checking out. They do free consultations and I 10/10 would recommend.

Wonderful trainers and facility! Everyone we worked with was extremely professional and welcoming. We first met the owner, Dave, who was very compassionate and friendly during our consultation. He related to our situation and gave us hope that his team would be able to work with our dog. Our dog ended up working mostly with Cameron and Nick, and she learned so much with them! The videos they sent us throughout her training days were amazing! I was worried that I would walk away not feeling confident using an e-collar, but I left feeling like a pro. We have previously tried every other training method, and nothing has worked for our dog’s reactivity like the e-collar. Sit Means Sit has changed the game for us. We couldn’t recommend them enough!
