See Why Buffalo Dog Owners Love Sit Means Sit

Training Was Easy to Understand & Fun
“Highly recommend Sit Means Sit. Tom is super knowledgeable and made the training process easy to understand and fun. He also takes the time to explain the “why” and methodology of how he trains, which is extremely helpful. In just four lessons, I have built the basics with my dog that I can continue to build on. Rescuing a 3.5-year-old dog, I wasn’t sure that training was possible, but it’s not true what they say—you can teach an old dog new tricks!”
Justin R.
Empowered Me To Take Charge of Future Training
“One of the main things that put Sit Means Sit above the others is that they don’t just throw you into group classes. The training package comes with four individual sessions for YOU (yes you the owner) so that you are confident in your ability to take charge of all future training.”
