Police K9 Seminar Demonstration

This is a video from the Police K9 Seminar in L.A. this last week. We had 4 solid days of showing what our dogs were capable of doing. In this video you can see two intact male bitting dogs working around each other in close quarters. We are able to demonstrate our ability to have a dog remain calm when necesary or “turn on” and attack on command.

Our head trainer Darrel has been asked to help with the HITS Police K9 Seminar in LA this next week. Unfortunately this forces us to move the workshop back one week from the 24th to the 31st. Sorry for any inconvenience, and we hope you will all still be able to make it. Happy training!

The interactive one day seminar will teach the students how to effectively communicate with their dog at a distance without the standard practice of yelling. Each student will be instilled with the foundational blocks needed to teach their dogs the basic to advance obedience skills. While almost all dog trainers have certain levels of success, Sit Means Sit is renowned for their consistency and incredible transformation. The true test for any dog owner is in real life distractions such as other dogs, kids, cars and the mailman.

Anyone wondering how good our collars are?

Here’s what one of our Sit Means Sit Trainers wrote about our Sit Means Sit Collar!-

Well here is a good one.

One of our clients has a big Rotti and lives right on the North Shore beach, he takes care of massive property. He was walking his dog and lost the collar. Called me to buy another one and then a day and half later found it rolling in the shore break and the light still blinking, he slapped it on the charger and we gave him two new flat collars and he is back in business.

The unit itself took a “smooth sanding” as it tumbled in and out of the shore break over the days, but it still works and no replacement!
