Day Training

One of our most popular and accessible training programs, Day Training, is perfect for families with busy schedules who still want to be involved in the pet training journey. It is like doggy daycare, but instead of playing all day, your canine companion enjoys fun training sessions with an expert dog trainer. Let us know your dog training goals so we can replace problem behaviors with good behavior!

All you have to do is drop off your dog in the morning. Then, we build a foundation for basic obedience and work on unwanted behaviors like poor leash manners, getting in the trash, reactivity, problem barking, and more! At pick-up, we teach you the commands your pup has learned so you can continue reinforcing their new good manners at home! Check out our Day Training packages:

  • 3 Day Train Sessions

No need to leave your dog at a generic boarding facility when they can be in an enriching training environment with our team of professional trainers. Enjoy your trip with the knowledge that your dog is having fun, building confidence, and improving their good manners!

Includes:

  • 5, 10, or 15 Days of Training
  • Boarding Accommodations at K9 Corral

Dog Boarding

Our Dog Boarding program is for pups who don’t need a training session but still need the best care while their owners travel. Your dog won’t receive any immersive training, but will still be spoiled by our staff plus get plenty of exercise while receiving lots of mental enrichment.

We will also work on social skills with other dogs so your dog comes home confident enough to take on any busy park or neighborhood walk!

Monthly Refresher Classes

*Existing Clients Only

One training program might not be enough depending on your dog’s behavior and training needs, but we offer a lifetime of training support! We hold monthly refresher classes, complementary with all training packages, so you can polish up on obedience or work on behavior concerns. These private lessons are tailored to your dog’s training goals and keep you feeling confident about your dog’s behavior.

At Sit Means Sit, we believe that training is an organic journey, and it’s important to keep on top of positively reinforcing their good behaviors. By supporting your dog’s manners, they will continue to show excellent obedience, so you are confident handling your dog in any situation. Monthly Refresher Classes are great for continuing to grow a relationship based on confidence and trust!

Conner WillyardOwner
Conner began his journey in dog training 13 years ago as a client, quickly discovering a passion for working with dogs. After dedicating time to training his own dog, he pursued a professional path in the field, joining the Sit Means Sit location in the Longmont-Firestone area, where he was a trainer for over 5 years.
Seeking a new challenge, Conner transitioned to law enforcement, becoming a police officer at a local agency. There, he founded the department’s canine unit, becoming its first-ever canine handler. After six years in law enforcement, an exciting opportunity arose-purchasing the Sit Means Sit dog training franchise in northern Colorado. Now, he combines his expertise in training both pet dogs and police canines to help dogs and their owners build stronger, more effective relationships.
JustinOwner

My journey with Sit Means Sit began nearly 13 years ago, inspired by my experience with an aggressive pitbull. Determined to provide a better path, I started training my 6-month-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Maximus. We quickly advanced through obedience training and went on to work as a therapy dog team while also competing in flyball. Sit Means Sit has opened countless doors for us along the way.

Today, I run the Cruisin K9’s flyball team out of Firestone, CO, Along with Maximus, I’m proud to train and compete with my Dutch Shepherd, Elliegator, in dock diving, and my Chihuahua, Habanero, in both disc dogs and flyball. I have a deep passion for working with high-drive sport dogs, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work with you and your dog!

Dog Owners Reviews

We love customers and their dogs. They love us.

Tracy S.

My “crazy” dog, Rose, was within hours if being put down. She had severe panic attacks & would bark uncontrollably. The neighbors were scared of her and someone even called the police on her. Our family was miserable and the whole household was tense and unhappy. After working with Adam we are able to bring…

Nikole S.

Their training philosophy and process is incredible. After one session my very intelligent border collie golden retriever mix was like a different dog. I am so impressed with the improvement she has made. We have worked with her since she was a puppy and she is now three years old, and I am just blown…

Aaron P.

Sit Means Sit NoCo is amazing! Adam has been working with my two daughters and their Golden Retrievers for a very short time and we have already seen incredible results. He is a patient and encouraging instructor. I can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Andrea L.

I absolutely love the classes taught by Adam of Sit Means Sit! My 2-year-old Lab/Border Collie Raven is learning quickly all the good manners a dog is expected to have – and much more: we are now doing some agility training and preparing for the CGC certificate. Every dog should go through this training and…
