We have an older GSD (8y). After Covid she became more territorial and aggressive especially towards little dogs. Blake and Cheyenne were absolutely amazing in the way that they trained Gracie and I. Our daily walks are so much more enjoyable and we both look forward to them. Anyone looking for help understanding their canine companion should invest in this training. Blake even came to our house and went on walks with us. Best trainers I’ve ever worked with.

Love our experience with this method of training. Our Labrador puppy (little Tasmania devil) has responded very quickly to Blake and Cheyenne’s instruction. Classes and “homework “ are very straightforward with help always just a call or text away. Love the group classes which also helps with socializing our puppy. We took advantage of an in-home class and Blake was more than happy to come over and assist us. The business also has fun events, such as a mock coffee shop. A local business coffee truck showed up with lots of seating and tables which provided a real world atmosphere for the training that day. Our experience has been money well spent.

I have a fear-aggressive Dogo Argentino who is both people & dog-reactive. I never imagined I’d be able to manage him in public—yet here I am, thanks to Sit Means Sit Dog Training. To be honest, this is a powerful breed, and without the training, he wouldn’t have the freedom he has today. The Sit Means Sit method not only helped my dog learn how to behave and stay focused, but also built my confidence in managing him. Now, I can take my dog out in public with control and peace of mind—something I never thought would be possible. I’m so grateful for the Sit Means Sit team for helping us get to this point! I thought I loved my dog before, but after going through training my love and bond with him is even greater.

Blake helped us train our shelter dog. We did use an ecollar to assist training (not a shock collar). Simple advice has been given to help correct behaviors we struggled with. Training support is exceptional. Blake's dog Hunter did a handstand and that was enough to convince my husband to try Sit Means Sit training. It is an investment and others might be cheaper but Sit Means Sit is worth it. It helped teach us and our furry friend to make us all happily coexist together, helping us understand and better communicate with each other. Thank you so much! Update: It’s been three months. The group and office training is amazing continued support. Nova has made such great progress and the addition classes have continued us to make great changes and follow through with continued training. Love Sit Means Sit staff.
