No question,, Just wondering why your still in business due to how you mistreat animals. All you people that work at this place should be jailed.
I been using them for a month, I think they are great. Why do you think they mistreat the dogs is my concern?

I've been using sit and stay since I got my first service dog through them for my son with cerebral palsy to walk with. Also another dog and then finally training the aggressiveness out of our Rottweiler. Every one I've sent loves the place. Why do you think or know they abused animals
What’s the explanation of the video going around of the dogs being abused and neglected under the care of the employees here?
Good morning,
The video you are seeing was staged over 2 years ago by PETA. We were just as appalled as everyone when we first saw it. We hired a private investigator to investigate our company and invited animal services out. Nothing was found. The PETA informant who staged the video is currently being sued by Petsmart for staging cruelty for hamsters, gerbils, and parakeets.
The video does not represent our company or what we do.
Thank you for your concern,
Inghram's Sit N Stay Dog Academy

My dog Maximus, spent 8 weeks there as a pup and goes back regularly for stays. No problems. I was told about the video when we went for the interview. Was told it was a person with an axe to grind. My neighbor also had their dogs trained and boarded there as well.
Inhghrams is the best dog trading school in Tampa. We have had tremendous treatment from all the staff.

I have 2 miniature dachshunds who have NOT been abused during Daycare nor boarding. I have not witnessed any type of abuse in my 2.5 years of being a client of Sit N Stay.

Our sweet, yet stubborn, Ruby (Mini Goldendoodle) was the best addition to our family. That being said, we didn't know what we didn't know regarding training this pup. Sit and Stay Academy has been a blessing! After weeks of intensive board and train, she has come home to us a much more obedient dog. We are now in phase two, the harder job, of training us humans. Shoutouts in particular to Clark ( who was amazing with our 8 yo son, explaining in a manner he understood), Shalli and Jenn ( who have politely educated us on how we have contributed to some bad behaviors and how to correct them), and Lexi ( who recently helped us train and still love on our sweet girl at the same time). Cannot recommend this group more to those who are looking to have an even better best fur friend for life!

Brought my Rottie puppy to them for the board and train off leash program. Between that and the continuing training as part of the program, our Tilly is an angel at home. By far the most well behaved dog I’ve ever owned.

This a great facility with owners and staff that care. Their passion for training and well manored dogs is part of their dna.
Choosing a facility to trust is difficult but when a business is lead with passion you know you can trust them. The owners and every staff member I encountered was knowledgeable and friendly.
Training starts with your pet but evolves with owner consistency. They helped me understand my dogs psychology and tools I can use every day to help build her confidence.
Highly recommend.
