I am told this place trains with shock collar on all its dogs, even before the dog learns commands. Is this true?
Hi, I was a little concerned on how Someone can use a “shock collar” for positive reinforcement ?
Community answer · John Reeves (BackyardSkate) · 2021-09-21
Hey Jennylee, my name is Anthony and I own our Denver location. Call it what you like but the modern tech and modern, attention-based approach is very different than a past mindset of “shock collar” or training. More trainers and people are exploring and using collars now than ever because of the advancement and evolution. You’re welcome to visit with us personally for free and educate and then judge for yourself what makes sense. We’ve been at it for 20 years, so the system, technique and results are really well documented.
I appreciate your attention, feel free to reach out.

They don't call it a shock collar since they use it for "positive reinforcement", but yes. It's definitely a shock collar. They will also recommend your dog to wear it at all times.

We train any dog, any age, any problem! We'll start puppies as early as 8-10 weeks and grow them for life; we've had 12 year old dogs come for training too! And we purposely located outside of Denver so we don't have breed restrictions.

It depends on the dog and specific needs! They will give you a free consultation where they meet you and the dog! My dog did one week boarding. Total was $1850.
Community answer · Britni Luna · 2019-09-21
Hey Stephanie,
Just like Britni said below, we meet for free to assess your dog and needs, then give you options. I noticed you contacted us directly and may be up in the foothills, so several factors may come into play for you like timing, travel, schedule and of course budget. Please call us to chat and we'll see if it makes sense to get together. 303-422-3647.

ps. that boarding listed here is an unlimited lifetime follow up!!
Community answer · Sit Means Sit Denver Dog Training · 2019-09-21
Laura, I'm presuming you have our Sit Means Sit collar which also has a lifetime warranty! So, if the controller is not functioning, the manufacturer will repair or replace. If you've lost it call our office and we can coordinate getting you a new one. Numbers are listed in Google profile.

On Saturday, September 27, I took my dog (Buddy) to his (and my) first group training session. I was very apprehensive about taking Buddy there because he barks and goes crazy when he sees other dogs when I go on walks with him. I am so relieved that everything went well. No problems at all in the group session. Anthony put me and Buddy at ease. Buddy was well behaved and did very well in his first group session. IF YOU ARE AFRAID OF TAKING YOUR DOG TO HIS/HER FIRST GROUP TRAINING SESSION, DON'T BE AND DON'T ME LIKE ME AFRAID OF TAKING HIM/HER THERE. Thank you, thank, you, thank you Anthony for taking all my anxiety away and for telling me to relax because all would be fine.

I’m not sure we could have successfully kept our rescue pets without these guys! We had a dog trained there 10 years ago and one 6 months ago. And we are all happy!

I couldn’t be happier with sit means sit. My dog Toby was jumping on guests, put everything outside in his mouth, and hated being in his crate. When he was 6 months old I did the five day board and train and he’s so well trained. The staff is always helpful and answers all my questions. The group classes and private lessons are so nice to have to continue with his training.
