Reactive

A reactive dog overreacts to normal situations that other dogs would take in stride. They become overstimulated easily and may bark, lunge, and growl at something as simple as another dog or person walking on the other side of the street. Attention to training is extremely important, as reactivity can turn into aggression. The cause…

Socialization

Socialization with dogs, humans, and other animals is a great way to ensure a well-mannered and confident dog.

I cannot say enough positive comments about Sit Means Sit. Kim and Salvatore went above and beyond to help me with my “not so obedient” pup. I always felt confident when it came to leaving him for his daily training and knew he was in good hands. I always felt he improved another 100% every time I picked him up and continue to see a world of a difference. I never felt rushed at pick up and everyone took the time to answer any and all questions/concerns I had. Hailey was a rockstar when it came to going over all of my instructions on how to work my tools at home so I could continue my training. Hailey was also extremely observant and knowledgeable at check in time. Claudia and Cassidy are always a pleasure to interact and communicate with on the phone and via email. The owner Ray makes sure he is involved with every pet to ensure quality care and training. He should be proud to have such an outstanding group of trainers on his hands. I cannot wait to continue my group training and know my pup would not be where he is today without their help and expertise! I will always recommend them for any training needs. Great job!
