About Sit Means Sit Dog Training Pittsburgh

We want you to enjoy life with your dog. Our training system teaches you and your dog how to use basic commands to combat difficult situations. We focus on attention first. What does that mean for you? What is difficult for one person may be a leash walk, while difficult for another person may be greeting a guest at home. We recognize that every dog and family has a different reason for calling us. That is why our focus on attention is so important. But you won't know until you see it. Be sure to check out our videos. Schedule the free consultation. We can't wait for the opportunity to show you how much we can help.

What people have asked about this business.

Didnt see anything about prices on website. Are they expensive?

It is all dependent on your needs and what program you choose (group lessons, at home training, day training etc) we found the price to be well worth it with all our package included

Question on Google
Do you only train big dogs? I have a 6 mo old cavachon and she is out of control. Smart but bad. Big problems with potty training and chewing

They train all kinds of dogs. Bloodhounds to Yorkies. You can even get private lessons! Hope this helps.

So happy with the service provided and the changed behavior our pup has shown is quite amazing! Our main issue for seeking help was excessive barking when anyone came near our home and the inability to quiet/calm him. He also was not fond of the new next door neighbors dog and would bark and act out anytime they were within sight which was several times a day. I must admit I was initially worried bc it is a little pricey but the outcome and the peace it provided was well worth it. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, knowledgeable and very supportive. Highly recommend.

I cannot recommend it Means Sit enough for your dog training needs. Our golden retriever’s behavior has completely improved. The staff has been amazing to work with.

Alicia, Lisa, and the rest of the sit means sit crew on rt 51 are ALL amazing! I used to be a vet tech so I know how to "handle" animals, but I will be the 1st to admit that I do Not know how to properly train a dog. That being said, I've also never had a puppy and just like with human babies; you have no idea what it's really like until you have your own! I am so greatful for the program they offered because it really helped to hold me accountable. Both, my husband and myself have had dogs our whole lives but now we have 5 and 7 year old boys and I wanted to make sure I raise a confident dog that will make any kid feel comfortable. She is only 6 months old so I'm expecting there to be more obsticles in the future, which is why I knew I would need the lifetime

5/5

The moment you walk in you can tell the staff is extremely friendly, professional and love what they do. I have a rambunctious 6 month old lab that came out of training calm, now listens to my commands and walks well on a leash. Lauren and Kelli ( the trainers) were wonderful with my pup and very patient showing me how to practice at home. I would highly recommend Sit Means Sit for dog training!
