Sit Means Sit, is the first class training facility, both our dogs have trained with. It’s an intense, but compassionate structured training, for the life of your dog. The Boatd snd Review program is awesome. Go on vacation, or take a break, and your dog is loved, exercised, and trained on issues that need refreshing. I’ve known Scott Sanchez for over 13 years, and his team, who always are top notch. Your life will be happier knowing you have a well trained and happy dog.

Sit Means Sit Hawaii was a wonderful company to work with. We used them to train our spunky little puppy. Their training method was gentle but consistent and our pup responded well. Scott and Rhonda were lovely to work with. I highly recommend this business!

Day 1 of my GSD's training, and apparently, they allowed him to get loose and he got hit by a car. sadly, he did not make it. they offered a new GSD and we accepted. they said it was from a pedigree line, but it turned out he had food allergies and now we spend extra money caring for his allergies which include medication and food prescription. dont get me wrong, would not trade him at all since we have had him since he was a puppy but what a shame how everything turned out. not sure if much has changed, if they do extra precautions when training dogs.

I love these trainers! Scott is so helpful even two years later. And once your dog graduates, you can bring your canine back, if you need someone trustworthy to dog sit. I have brought my dog back three times, when I have gone on vacation. Thanks Scott, you are the best!
