Testimonials
We’ve trained with Sit Means Sit for several years. We can’t imagine life without this dog training! We have a dog that probably would’ve been put down had it not been for this training. She had been untrainable by prior owners. SMS has truly been a life saver for our Daisy. ❤️ Mark Malanzo is an awesome trainer! He and Kaitlyn both teach the dog owners so well in how to communicate with their pets. They are truly amazing trainers! We love how they mix up training sessions each week of the month. We go from walk classes, to agility, to hike classes, and also beginners classes. They also include classes with games to make it fun for the dogs and owners while still learning. Here’s a pic we took from a walking class when we walked through Downtown Summerlin. The dogs learned to walk up and down escalators, how to lay down under our legs at a chair in case we take them to patio dining—so they will mind their manners). Just a couple of examples of the very useful training we learn from Mark and Kaitlyn. 💕
We took our rescue Jimmy. He has separation anxiety issues and we wanted him trained. He had a rough start, we know he was either a stray, hit by a car with a fracture hind leg, scared, I looked into his eyes and said that is our dog. At first he would not listen, had destructive behavior, would go to the bathroom everywhere, did not want to play. Since training with Sit Mean Sit Dog Training, he is a brand new dog. He listens to commands, walks on a leash (he walks slow since my knee surgery). I took him to the park and he was so well behaved. He plays more with is dog brother, plus he acts like a dog and like to explore more. The trainers were so patient with us and helped us out with Jimmy’s homework training. Even my daughter was now able to use the commands for Jimmy. He is super happy and at home. Sit Means Sit is amazing and I would definitely recommend them for dog training. We now have a happy dog and happy family!
In just a few short weeks, my dogs have transformed into ultra obedient pets. My wife and I are able to walk our dogs off leash with complete confidence that they will both listen and respond to our directions. We both agree that Sit Means Sit is money well spent! Awesome customer service… Super helpful and friendly trainers…
We used sit means sit for our first Rottweiler and had wonderful results. We recently got our second Rottweiler and without hesitation contacted sit means sit. Glad we did! We just finished her initial round of training and are very pleased with the entire process. Our girl is just five months old and coming along nicely in learning her commands. Tammy and Richard were easy to communicate with, flexible when things came up and really cared about us getting to a place where we were comfortable with training. Looking forward to starting group classes soon!
I am in awe at the level of excellence that Sit Means Sit Anthem Dog Training promotes and provides. I’ve been a dog mom for over 20 years and joined and bought every type of dog training out there, but nothing ever seemed to stick for me in my past. When I got my Golden Doodle, I knew I couldn’t waste such an intelligent and talented dog on my lack of training abilities and consistency. I interviewed several training companies, but my head and heart were 100% confident and comfortable with SMS’s training methods, pricing and timelines. I loved the all-day school drop-off training idea. Genius, in fact! Within the first day, my dog was a completely different dog. It looked as if she immediately belonged in a dog show. It was beautiful. By graduation, you could see how happy she was to be pleasing us and getting so much praise in return. The training does stick with the dog, it’s so easy to stay consistent with for us, as humans, and our babies actually enjoy learning and obeying and being rewarded with high praise. I couldn’t be happier with the results and the new friends I’ve made along the way, in the trainers. They are worth every penny and then some, and the fact that I have access to them for my fur-baby’s lifetime, should anything arise that they can assist with, brings me so much peace and trust in them and their work. You don’t find that anymore. A lifetime of gratitude – Thank You Tammi & Richard!
My ridgeback is extremely smart and stubborn. After several classes I can control her, but group classes help to remind her how to behave.
Although our dog is mostly sweet, she had some very bad habits. She is a rescued guard dog and is very protective, sometimes to the point of aggression toward our son and violence toward other animals. We contacted Sit Means Sit for a consultation. We discussed her issues and she demonstrated some of this behavior while in consultation. After one day at the facility, she was a different dog. An hour after she arrived for her second session, the staff contacted me asking if she WAS the same dog! She’s so calm and well behaved now. We’re blessed that she WANTS to please and behave, but the staff was so loving and caring toward her that she didn’t feel punished to do so. They’ve given us specific instructions catered to her- they noticed special things about her that helped us all work together to be a happy family. While the price was a little spendy, it was SO worth it to have this wonderful, well behaved, love in our lives and to have the peace of mind that she was being loved while she was being trained. We’d go back again and again!
Rosie just finished her one-on-one classes portion of the training with Tammi. She is already a very different dog – she definitely listens now, she knows the basics, and she is actually much more lovable! We will now start to attend the group classes to see how she does there. We are so glad we did this.
We had two dogs we worked with at the same time with two very different personalities. Richard got to know both our dogs and his training has helped our dogs become better behaved members of our family. It sets them up for success. We look forward to continuing our training in the groups! Thank you for all your help!
I just want to start off and say that Tammi and Richard are amazing at what they do. Happy that we were recommended to them for assistance with our rambunctious puppy. Along with the noticeably immediate disciplinary skills he developed, our puppy also learned countless commands and skills. We were nervous about keeping his progression and learning going once training ends, but Tammi and Richard provide you with homework and extensive learning material to continue training your dog at home. Each training session we picked up our puppy from, they’ll have a one on one with you about the days lesson and what you’re too continue practicing at home. Then Tammi will take you out and show you what they’ve worked on all day, then she lets you take the reins and practice. What made us appreciate them so much was the fact that they weren’t just trying to get us out and the next dog in, She takes the time, patience and effort each session to show the owner how to properly execute each command, they will not let you leave till everyone is comfortable with the new lessons. 10/10 would recommend. Love, A happy family.
