When Pleasantville Owners Usually Reach Out

What dog owners say about Sit Means Sit

“My dog and I have struggled with his reactivity for years and this program has made progress for my dog that several trainers over several years never could”
Jamie S.Google review
“During walks or even in the car he’d lunge, growl and bark at any dog even if it was far down the road. … In group class he can now sit five feet from another dog and not react. We never thought we would ever see the day.”
Erin N.Google review
“Imagine my surprise when she responded to "come" and "sit" after her first session. Today, she graduated and is truly a dream dog.”
Cherish S.Google review
“Before Sit Means Sit, our chocolate lab was jumping at every bird that flew near her, trying to play with every dog we walked past in the city, pulling us on the leash … being able to take a walk in the city with a constant loose leash feels amazing.”
