Questions & answers

From Google

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.

Question on Google
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!

Our dog has been doing amazing at sit means sit. We love the trainers, and they truly do care about each dog that comes in. They have never forgot her name or who she is and her progress no matter how many dogs they have trained. We chose them because of their experience with Belgian Malinois. We have loved every experience from the at home consultation, to puppy school, to the one on one training, and now the group classes we attend. We are so happy we found this place.

We are very happy with our experience with Sit Means Sit. We have a working dog and they have helped teach us how to best work with her. She use to run to greet people and now she will sit and wait patiently. The trainers have taught us so much and I cannot wait to continue our training with them.

My standard poodle was extremely reactive. Cars, children, bicycles, dogs on TV. It became too much for me to handle alone so when a coworker referred me to Sit Means Sit I signed my boy up. He did the ten day board and train and as hard as it was to leave him it was worth every second apart. He listens with intent now and is overall much less anxious. Sit Means Sit gave my dog confidence and me the tools I needed to work with him. We had our first group class and he was able to be in a room with other dogs and listen/preform commands. Our life together has drastically improved. I can’t wait to continue with group classes.
