Reactive

A reactive dog overreacts to normal situations that other dogs would take in stride.

We brought our dog Brandy in for the 3-week training program because she was very anxious and had a major issue with barking. We were hoping to see significant progress, and we were so happy with the results.

Kate did an amazing job working with Brandy and helping her through the training process. We also want to recognize Mary, she was so great with Brandy and did an excellent job explaining the training methods and techniques to us in a way that was easy to understand and follow.

When we needed some additional guidance toward the end, Phil (the owner) and Mary went above and beyond by coming to our house and spending 90 minutes working with Brandy and helping us get across the finish line.

We’re incredibly grateful to Phil, Mary, and Kate for all of their hard work, dedication, and care. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for dog training and support for their pet.

Sit means sit is a very wonderful and hardworking training facility. My dog Daisy absolutely loved going here and she absolutely has learned so much. I would recommend this place for anyone looking to go to training.
