Sit Means Sit Dog Training saved my dogs life. After 4 trainers that couldn't help my dog after he did $2000 of damages in my home, scaled my 6 foot fence that was installed for less then 24 hours, multiple times get out my front door and running at large and finally biting someone and court, this training system saved my dogs life. He is a well behaved dog that I love showing off the people and my friends and family can not believe that he was ever that kind of dog. He did a complete 180 and I was able to keep my best friend. Tim is a great guy to work with!

Tim was great...professional, punctual and knowledgeable. My gorgi puppy has responded fantastic to his system! The key behaviors I was looking for help with were chewing, leash walking, coming when called, and potty training and the difference has been night and day in a very short period of time. I highly recommend Tim if you are looking for focused and efficient solutions to train your puppy. -Mark

*AMAZING FOR RESCUE DOGS* Wow, what a changed dog! When we first brought Beau home from the Humane Society, we could barely get him to get out of the car! He was so scared and just wanted to hide in the bushes. Beau had a big chewing problem and a couple of other anxiety issues (such as being nervous around men (we had learned he had been neglected wherever he was before) and getting out of control when seeing other dogs). We had Tim board and train Beau for two weeks while my family and I were vacation, and when we came back, Beau was a completely changed dog! Tim really knows how to work with rescue dogs, and that is not easy to do! Now he really is able to be a part of the family. Now he will just lay on his dog bed while we are having dinner and just hang out there! I was a little hesitant about the whole collar thing, but honestly, it does not hurt the dog and really does work wonders. It is basically just giving the dog a tap on the shoulder. Another great thing about Tim is that he answers texts and calls very promptly! We have had Beau back for about three weeks and now whenever he sees Tim at a followup lesson, Beau gets so excited! Tim has our highest recommendation!
I LOVE Sit Means Sit Dog Training and love what it has done for me and my dog Grace. Can't find anything like it anywhere else. Tim and his team are very knowledgeable and can help anyone.
