We sent our dog Bernie to Sit Means Sit for the 5 day board and train program! We were so impressed with how much he learned in 5 days! Over the last two months, we have been following up with 1-on-1 training sessions and have since graduated into group classes! Before training, Bernie was extremely reactive towards other dogs, birds and humans. It was so bad that we avoided going on walks altogether! He can now successfully go on walks and is such a well behaved boy! The training program is so thorough and offers so much support for the humans as well as for dogs. We are forever grateful for Sit Means Sit and our trainer Kaylee! 🩵

This was SO worth it! I get to enjoy walking with my dog. I envied those people at the beach with their dogs, and now I am one of those people! Halle was her one on one trainer, Matt and Halle did our group classes, and now we're going to try our first distraction class with Halle. BIG SHOUT OUT TO HALLE! MATT HAS BEEN WONDERFUL, TOO! Here's the thing though... although the trainers ARE great, you have to put in some work with your dog, too. Do it! I did and my life has changed!

Sit means sit has been so helpful to our pup and family! Put baby had some minor food aggression in addition to being very protective of our other dog because of a dog attack. Sam is our trainer and I cannot say enough nice things about him. He made sure to check in, answered any and all questions we had, was patient with our baby girl and had the best jokes. If you’re on the fence you should just do it! It’s worth every penny!
