FirstBarkWe’ve had two dogs in the program. Most recently we took our puppy who was struggling with chewing things and mouthing us and our grandkids. After a residential training period she is so much better. And as good as that training was, it’s the training of us and continued support for us on how to manage her that has been the real win. The staff loves our dog and has taught her, and us, well!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat 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!

We had such a great experience with Sit Means Sit Dog Training! They worked with both of our dogs, Ginger and Magic, and the results have been incredible. The trainers were knowledgeable, patient, and really took the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs. Ginger is so much more focused and responsive now, and Magic has improved tremendously with obedience and overall behavior. The training methods were clear and effective, and we felt supported every step of the way. Highly recommend to anyone looking for real results and a positive experience for their dogs!

We had such a wonderful experience with this dog training session! From start to finish, everything was handled with professionalism, patience, and genuine care. It’s clear how much time and effort goes into making each session effective and positive—not just for the dogs, but for the owners too. We’ve already seen great progress, and the techniques shared were easy to understand and apply at home. What really stood out was the trainer’s dedication, encouragement, and ability to connect with our dog in such a calm and confident way. We’re incredibly grateful for the guidance and support, and truly appreciate all the hard work that goes into helping dogs (and their humans!) succeed. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a positive and effective training experience! Thanks, Scott and Marissa
Staff was excellent with our dogs 10 day training and they continue to be a great source of help with the group class ! Our dogs have flipped a 180 going from terrors to being good mannered dogs ! Us dog parents aren't just surviving our dogs, we are all thriving !
Expert dog behavior and training - really worked with us and our two dogs to be able to listen to commands. My biggest thing was getting our dogs to walk politely on-leash and we finally have that ! Thank you so much !
