Day Train
At our Day Train classes, our trainers work with your pup throughout the day to solidify their newfound obedience skills. When you pick up your canine at the end of the day, our team will have a review lesson to catch you up on everything your dog learned. Our trainers will also equip you with…

Our certified trainers will address behavioral problems directly and teach you how to train your dog effectively. This instruction ensures you can maintain the habits and skills your dog has learned. The main…
Puppy Management
The first 20 weeks of your dog’s life are crucial for shaping social skills, manners, and behaviors that will carry into adulthood. Early training is key to creating a strong bond between you and your dog and ensuring your dog is social with other canines and people. This early stage sets the foundation for your…
Group Class
For many dog owners, group classes are the best of both worlds. Group classes at Sit Mean Sit are an excellent way to socialize your dog while still obtaining the benefits of one-on-one training. Dogs of all sizes and ages can learn and make new friends in our group classes. When you sign up for…
Behavior Modification Training
In addition to our training programs, we can train your dog or pup to overcome specific behaviors and emotions for a happier, healthier dog.
Aggressive
An aggressive dog can cause difficulties when trying to incorporate them into your daily life, and can create stress and strain for everyone in your household. Often these behaviors stem from factors like inadequate socialization, fear, stress, or negative past experiences. Working collaboratively, you and your trainer can address and resolve some of these behavioral…
High Anxiety/Fear
Whether it’s a fear of strangers, other dogs, or separation from their owner, it can be incredibly challenging to train an anxious dog. Our trainers will work closely with you and your pup to gradually increase their comfort zone through positive experiences, building your dog’s confidence in a safe and productive way. Signs of Anxiety…
High-Distraction
Does your dog bolt the second they see a squirrel, person, or another dog across the street? These distractions are unavoidable in the real world, which is why our trainers focus and specialize in high-distraction training. With consistency, we can help direct your dog’s focus to you in any situation when distractions arise….
Off-Leash
If you aspire to enjoy the freedom of having your dog off-leash while exploring your favorite trails or during camping adventures, off-leash training could be a perfect fit for you and your furry companion. Off-leash training is distinct from obedience, although skills such as recall are the foundation of off-leash training. Our trainers will begin…
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. The best time to socialize is between 10-16 weeks of age, but not all dogs get to experience socialization as a puppy. A lot of rescue dogs enter their new homes without proper socialization, which can put…

See More ReviewsAlex and his staff were great to work with and went above and beyond when caring for and training our miniature Dachshund.
I enrolled my Great Dane, Malley, in the 2 week immersion program. She has been home now for 3 days and I am completely amazed how much this program has done for her. Prior to the immersion program, Malley was the “boss.” She listened very little and had become a bully to one of my other dogs. So bad, in fact, for nearly a month and a half prior to enrollment the two had to be kept in separate rooms of the house and were forced to take turns spending time with the entire family. She is doing amazingly well since returning home and has significantly responded to all the training methods in which this wonderful company teaches.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff within this facility. From my initial consultation with Alex, to the professionalism of Amy, and the outstanding training from Nancy, Sit Means Sit deserves more than just the 5 stars I’m allowed to rate them. Thank you to everyone for the great care and training you’ve provided to my 4 legged kid!!! I’m eternally grateful and look forward to utilizing this establishment for Malley’s on going education as well as some training for a couple others in my pack!!!
