We added Kammy as a part of our family 2 years ago. When she first came home, she had been abused and she was afraid of everything. It took us 9 hours to get her from our kitchen to our living room. Then it took us a week to get her to even climb our steps to…

  My wife and I attended the Home Show and saw you and your well behaved dogs at the Sit Means Sit booth.  I told my wife right then, “This is how I want our dog Chief to act.” So we contacted Lisa and started on our path with Sit Means Sit private lessons and…

Ginger is a four-year-old German Shepherd we adopted at 3 yrs old.  She had been in 2 other environments and had suffered abuse, neglect, and severe depression after losing her puppies.  Ginger has been through more than I can imagine, yet she has the most soulful sweet brown eyes and such velvety soft ears.  I…

Bruno is a sweet, loving and very determined Great Dane.  He thinks that he is a guard dog and his main job is to protect the house, yard, car and family.   This is not an easy trait to deal with in any dog, but Bruno’s size made things more difficult.  I had a hard time…

Dookie is a very sweet 4 year old black Lab/Shepherd mix, who is aggressive around other dogs, especially when he is on a leash. We started working with Lisa in October 2013 and I immediately noticed a big improvement. We live in the North Hills, so it’s quite a hike to get to the South Hills for classes,…

Rae is an English Pointer mix who was adopted in August 2012. She’s about 77 pounds and is very stubborn for me, much more so than for my husband. We also have a Collie mix and a black Lab. One of the issues we had with Rae was finding her position in the “pecking order”…

  I would highly recommend Sit Means Sit. My dog, Charlie, responded very well. The area I see the biggest improvement is off leash. We take her to dog parks frequently, and before this training she completely ignored my husband and I as soon as she entered the gate. Now, she responds even from a…

  I have a yellow Lab/Golden Retriever mix named Lola – she is about 70 pounds and 19 months old. Lisa came to my house over the summer to give lessons and Lola loved her and her dog Copper. Lola is very friendly, loves all dogs and people. But she does have a stubborn streak…

Moby is a three year old chocolate Lab who we adopted at 12 weeks as his prior owners couldn’t properly care for him. Moby was a pretty good dog in a lot of ways but as he got older, his behavior got worse, to the point that we were embarrassed to take him on walks, primarily…

Sit Means Sit has been a great investment for my dog, Bella, and for me. Bella is an 18 month old English Bulldog. She is 70 pounds and was difficult for me to handle when she was distracted by people or dogs. Bella has made drastic improvements in her listening skills and behaviors. She has…

Hobo is a four year old Shepard-Doberman mix (about 75 pounds). Hobo was adopted at 10 weeks old and when to puppy school when he was about five months. He learned basic commands (sit, down, stay, leave it, etc.), but we could never get him beyond that on our own. We thought he was an…

Marley has always been a crazy ball of energy, which was fine when she was little because when she was being “bad” we should just pick her up. She has always been on her own agenda, whatever she wanted to do when she wanted to do it. She rarely listened to “come” when she was…

When we adopted Fleury, we certainly weren’t prepared for all the strength our new girl packed! While my husband was able to hold on to her, I constantly had to deal with her pulling me any way she wanted to go. After a few slips in the snow due to her pulling on the leash,…
