Sit Means Sit Denver Dog Training Testimonial
Anthony, Bob, and Sit Means Sit,
Jenni and I thought it was time to give a little info about our dogs and our experience with you.
We began training with Sit Means Sit in late spring/early summer of 2010. Our female German Shepherd, Hayden, was two years old at the time. She was very dog and people aggressive. She was uncontrollable on walks, and basically too much to deal with when we were outside the comfort of our own house. Atley was a young six month old German Shepherd pup that was ready to learn, but was he getting influenced by his older sister’s bad habits. We decided it was time to get Hayden under control and start off on the right foot with Atley.
We met with Anthony for an initial consultation. At the time, Hayden was determined to eat Anthony and Phaneuf. Anthony worked with Hayden for all of five minutes and had her totally under control. WE WERE SOLD!!! We are coming up on a year of training with Sit Means Sit. It has totally changed our dogs and how they behave away from home. There is not a situation that we don’t feel 100% comfortable having them off leash. Neither show any sign of aggression in any situation now. They love their new jobs and are eager to work for us.
Thanks for everything,
Chad Lobato
Good Sit Means Sit dogs!

Thanks to VCA Hospital in Thornton!
Bob, the dogs and I had a chance to meet Erin and the staff at VCA Animal Hospital in Thornton yesterday and want to send a big thanks to them!
It’s a very nice clinic and a great staff. We all spent some time getting to know each other and talking about the challenges they face with their dog clients when the dogs have behavioral issues. One of the things we love about our business is sharing the passion and excitement that comes from making a difference for families and their dogs. We’ll often visit vet clinics, schools, daycares, etc. to provide a resource for them to turn to if they’re struggling with their dogs. The staff at VCA was very curious and receptive to talking about how they could better serve their human and K9 clients by having a place to point their clients when they need help with their dogs. We could feel their passion for their work and care of the animals – in fact we ran out of time with still more to talk about! I love it!
We’re proud to share what we do with other industry colleagues that are equally proud of their work. If you are in the Thornton area, this VCA clinic is located at about 104th Ave. and Colorado Blvd., stop in, say hi, and tell them that Sit Means Sit mentioned them – you’ll be glad you did!

Client Testimonial
Dear Anthony, Bob, Jay, and Marianne,
We would like to “paws” for a moment to thank you for helping us become better canine citizens. Our Human Mom is no longer embarrassed when she takes us for a walk in the neighborhood. We are no longer afraid of other dogs, but we are respectful of them.
We have only been attending classes for a matter of weeks, but we feel so much better about ourselves these days. We needed the confidence your classes have been able to give us. Our favorite part of class is making new friends.
We know we have a long way to go in our training, but that’s the fun part, at least that’s what our Human Mom has been telling us. We enjoy the classes, and we even enjoy the “Home-Work,” because that gives us our Human Mom’s undivided attention. That also means we must get our training walks in everyday, because otherwise the teachers will know we haven’t been practicing. We don’t want to be sent to the office!
Thank you for your patience with us as we learn our new skills. We appreciate your accepting us for the beagles we are, and are excited about the beagles we are to become. Who knew we had potential?!?!
Thank you for your training, “Sit Means Sit.”
Beagle Hugs and Kisses,
Beagle Bailey and the Bandit
Season’s Greetings from Kirby & the Kids

Kirby, a very photogenic Portuguese Water Dog, & his family started training with Sit Means Sit Denver in June 2010 when Kirby was just 3 months old. As you can see, Kirby & the kids are enjoying his off leash freedom!

Olaf, the GREAT Dane
My husband and I started training our 15-month old Great Dane Olaf with the Sit Means Sit collar just a few weeks ago and we couldn’t be more happy. Olaf received training as a puppy through a leash-based program. While we did get results with this program, we didn’t like that Olaf would disobey when off-leash. We had been thinking about using a collar system, and that’s what attracted us to Sit Means Sit. We had private lessons with Anthony initially, which were great. We’ve also started group classes, which are helping Olaf stay attentive around distractions. It only took a few days for my husband and I to get used to the remote and collar…3 weeks later and we are very impressed with the changes we’ve seen in Olaf already. We can walk him off-leash safely (which we never thought we could do, EVER) as he is very curious and will dart off. Even while off-leash, he will stay by us. He seems more calm through the day, and his obedience has greatly improved, which was our primary concern with a baby on the way. In 3 short weeks, we are so thankful to have found Sit Means Sit. Next time, we’ll use them from the start!

SMS-Training Aggressive Dogs
Anthony, Thank you very much for your skilled instruction and insightin regards to training Luka. I was about to consider getting another
dog due to her seemingly unmanageable aggressive tendencies toward
other dogs.
The training we have and continue to receive at, “Sit Means Sit”
has made all the differance. Luka is now manageable around other
dogs. In fact she is making progress in this regard every day.
Thanks again, Dirk and Olga
Happy HOWL-o-ween!
A BIG, BIG THANK YOU TO KARANN & NUGGET FOR HOSTING THIS YEAR’S HOWL-O-WEEN PARTY. AS YOU CAN SEE, A GOOD TIME WAS HAD BY ALL!
