Questions & answers

What people have asked about this business.

How much does your obedience training cost?

Our dog training programs are customized to each individual situation. We consider various factors such as your dog's age, temperament, and previous training, as well as your specific goals. To provide an accurate cost estimate, we offer a free consultation and demonstration. During this meeting, we'll assess your dog's needs and develop a tailored training plan. This allows us to give you a precise idea of the cost to achieve your goals, with no obligation attached to the initial consultation.

Question on Google
Does the trained dog always have to wear the Sit Means Sit dog collar?

Reinforcement is an ongoing part of dog training, similar to how traffic laws require continuous enforcement. The need for reinforcement varies among dogs, but proper training can lead to increased reliability even without training aids. Our training process involves three phases: teaching/control, reinforcement, and maintenance. The goal is to gradually reduce dependence on the collar while maintaining consistent behavior. Even after training, occasional reinforcement may be necessary, much like how drivers still need reminders of traffic rules. Our commitment is to help you achieve your training goals and maintain your dog's good behavior long-term.

Question on Google
Do you only train with the Sit Means Sit collar?

We utilize a diverse approach to dog training at Sit Means Sit. Our attention-based system, developed by our founder and CEO Fred Hassen, incorporates various training tools. While we often use our customized Sit Means Sit collar, it's just one of the tools in our arsenal. This electronic collar uses safe, adjustable stimulation similar to medical devices like TENS units. It functions as a remote-controlled cue, comparable to tapping someone's shoulder for attention. Our training process teaches dogs to associate this cue with positive outcomes, allowing for effective communication even in distracting environments.

Sit means Sit is a great program and resource for any dog parent who is in need of help. Alyssa & Skylar are amazing! They are kind and patient with the owners as well as their fur baby. Our dog just graduated from one of their programs and we already see so much improvement! We highly recommend them due to their knowledgable training and support system for alumni. We are so thankful for all the love and care they put into their work 😊🐶

My puppy (7) months learned so much in his 4 trainings Alyssa is great to work with. My boy is stubborn and she was patient with him. This is not an overnight process and you as the owner have to do your part. Sit Means Sit gave me the tools and resources to help make my puppy more manageable. This is a life long investment I would recommend them to anyone !!

I can’t recommend Sit Means Sit Greensboro enough! From the moment we started working together, it was clear that Alyssa and Skylar have a true passion for dogs and a deep understanding of behavior. Alyssa tailors each session to your dog’s specific needs, and the training is always positive, patient, and fun. She made sure to explain the reasoning behind each technique, so I felt confident and was able to reinforce the lessons at home. Wilson is not only more obedient but also more relaxed and happy. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your dog’s well-being and knows how to get results, Alyssa and Sit Means Sit Greensboro is for you.

Our dog Cash ( 1 year old chocolate lab), excelled under Alyssa's expertise. I first noticed Sit Means Sit after watching Ripken the Bat Dog on Facebook. I reached out to their Greensboro site online. Alyssa immediately got in touch and came out and we had our consultation where she got to meet Cash and us. We choose the 5 day training module and it really worked for us. Alyssa worked with our schedules even when Cash had to undergo emergency surgery for eating a toy that got stuck. We truly recommend Sit Means Sit, especially Alyssa for your training needs.
