Do you come to my home for the dog training?
We offer training classes at our facility located in Colorado Springs, but we also offer private training lessons at your home or at a place near you that you choose.
Community answer · Sit Means Sit Dog Training Colorado Springs · 2021-09-21
Is socialist something you do for dogs?
With my pup they started slow depending on the issue they have dogs who are pre trained that work with your pup unless there are concerns but on the good side once your dog is ready they offer group classes but baby steps first start small and work your way up. Introducing pets and other animals can be hard but allowing them to meet on uncommon ground normally work's best I have seen my pup go through two stages of the training so far and she's ready for group classes but we haven't been in really excited. Trust is a big thing for pets you need to relax and have trust if your unsure then your pet will be unsure which can cause socialization to be an issue but the trainers will work with not only the pet but the owners as well I strongly recommend you try them out and see if you like it.

Do you train service dogs
Yes. I have worked with many Service dogs.
Community answer · Donald Woodward · 2020-09-21
No. Don't trust them to train.
Community answer · Mk Podschweit · 2019-09-21
These ppl are not bad by no means but I think wht they charge to train isn't reasonable and so many other dog trainers out there offered me way better prices and there were a couple at some of the local pet stores that offered training for me for about 250 to 300 that's more like it I just chose to do it on my own.
Community answer · Shaunna Crane · 2018-09-21
Yes, they do and what they charge is well worth it! It's not just the training. The price includes other things as well. For insurance, when we completed the individual sessions, we graduated to the group module. There is so much to be learned in the group. We can attend as often as possible - which we do at 4x per week. I definitely recommend them! If nothing else, at least call them to check for yourself.

We truly can’t say enough wonderful things about Sit Means Sit and their entire team! From the very beginning, they have gone above and beyond—not just for our dog, but for our entire family. We have a 1½-year-old male German Shepherd, and while he is truly the best boy in the world, we quickly realized that we hadn’t prepared ourselves for the amount of structure, consistency, and training a working breed needs. We were struggling to give him the tools he needed to thrive, so we decided to enlist Sit Means Sit for help, and it has been one of the best decisions we could have made. We are only **three classes in**, and the difference is already incredible! We went from not even feeling comfortable letting him into our fenced yard without a leash to having amazing recall and significantly better obedience. More importantly, we are learning how to communicate with him and give him the structure he needs to be successful. My parents are actually the ones who encouraged us to give Sit Means Sit a try, as they are also training their two Golden Retriever puppies with the team. Their experience has been just as incredible. A few months ago, my mom suffered a heart attack, and the Sit Means Sit team showed our family an unbelievable amount of kindness, compassion, and support during such a difficult time. The way they cared for my parents and our family meant more to us than they will ever know. Every interaction we have with the Sit Means Sit team has been positive, encouraging, and understanding. They never make us feel judged or like we are “bad owners” because we didn’t have the right tools or knowledge to train our dog. Instead, they meet us where we are, teach us what we need to know, and give us the tools and confidence to succeed. That is what truly sets this company apart. You aren't just getting a dog trainer—you are getting a team of people who genuinely care about you, your family, and your dog. We would wholeheartedly recommend Sit Means Sit to anyone looking for training. We are so grateful we found this team and cannot wait to see how far our boy continues to grow! ❤️🐾

When we got Jeb, we found out quickly that he an exceptionally high energy dog. We really had a hard time getting him to focus on commands. Being a German Shorthair Pointer, all he wanted to do is hunt. The team at Sit-Means-Sit here in Colorado Springs, Colorado helped us get the focus we wanted from Jeb and now we have a perfect mix of a rock solid bird dog and a loved member of of pack! Thanks!!
