“His anxiety led him to bite someone and honestly we were afraid of what that meant. Walking into our meeting Toji was trembling and growling at everything and everyone. Neil took us immediately and showed us complete and utter compassion. … You guys have changed our lives. Our world was upside down when we’d come to you and we will forever be grateful for all the ways you’ve helped keep our family together.”
“The team at Sit Means Sit gave me back my life, my dogs, and my sanity. … Pulling on leash, barking constantly, reactivity to other dogs/animals, screaming, you name it. … I no longer have overwhelming anxiety when leaving my apartment to walk them and wonder what horrible thing will happen next.”
“Trying to walk her was always a nightmare, she would pull, scream at the other dogs and lunge towards them ( very embarrassing). … They were great, very patient with me and answered all of my questions, they didn't pressure me to enroll her. … I can walk her!! She's no longer reactive towards other dogs during our walks”
“Our main issue was Carl pulling on our walks as well as lunging for bunnies and cats and reacting to a couple of the neighborhood dogs. … After our his first couple of training sessions, Carl was so much easier to walk and it has turned into a fun activity versus a very stressful one. … If I had known how transformative the training would be, I would have started much earlier!”
Results vary by dog. Aggression is managed through training and ongoing owner work, not cured.
