FirstBarkAll the trainers here were so great working with our two Corgis! We came to them with leash aggression and control issues, and after a week training with them both of our pups showed so much improvement! We have had comments from our Vet saying they are very well trained Corgis now.

Hello, do you train service dogs?
Yes, we train service dogs. Our specific areas of focus are helping with mobility issues and emotional support dogs. There is quite a bit involved when it comes to service dog training, so we ask that you contact us for a consultation. Your dog may not be eligible based on breed or age, but we can help point you in the right direction. Service dog training can be quite expensive depending on the tasks needing to be performed, but we can answer any questions you have. Feel free to give us a call!

All the trainers are professional, accomplished and wonderful teachers to help a person get the best from their dog. I couldn’t say enough great things about them!!!!
We started bringing our puppy to Sit Now Stay a few weeks ago and could not be happier with the results. Our crazy Aussie has learned so much in only 5 visits. The entire staff seems very knowledgeable and has been very helpful. Kat answered our million questions and has been great to work with and our pup seems to love learning from her. Excited to keep working with them!
My dog really enjoys the days he goes to muscle mutts. Scheduling is convenient and the staff are extremely nice and polite. Thanks for taking care of my pup.

My dog Enzo absolutely loves going to Sit Now Stay and barks with joy when we pull in to the parking lot. You can tell they genuinely love dogs and treat your dog as their own. My dog is a Gordon Setter with endless energy and doesn’t like being home by himself but I always hated taking him to the typical doggie daycares because they were nothing but a fenced in space overcrowded with dogs. I would watch on the cameras and he would stay in the corner because he was overwhelmed. So when I discovered SNS and their Muscle Mutts program it was a no brainer. He gets a full day of stimulation and exercise while working on training. Do yourself and your dog a favor and go check them out
