Our dog, Furley, is a 95 lb Boxer/American Bully. He is as stubborn as a mule and as strong as an ox. He was 2½ years old when we brought him to SMS because he was being aggressive toward anyone that wasn't family. He would fight with the neighbor dogs through the fence, he would drag my wife down the street, he would try to go through the windows to get to anyone walking down the street. We tried every "shock collar on the market, and nothing seemed to work. We were so worried that he was going to harm a child that we contemplated on euthanasia. My wife and I decided to give SMS a chance to see if they could help. We put Mr. Furley through their 10 day program, really ot expecting much, but just for the purpose of saying "We did everything we could". Upon our first visit after the first 4-5 days, we didn't even recognize Furley. He was a completely different dog. He actually listened to commands. And when we finally picked him up to take him home, we were so excited to see the difference and the changes that had been made. Now, I can walk him through the neighborhood and he doesn't pull on the leash. I can take him off the leash in public and we play fetch with the ball. Sure, he acknowledges other dogs and kids, but he listens to every command and allows kids that he doesn't know to approach him. He looks at us to determine if someone or something is a threat, and then he just lays down and relaxes when strangers are around. Sit Means Sit literally saved Mr. Furley's life, and my family and I are so very greatful
