Absolutely amazing. The service they provide is top notch. Not only do they make it easy to understand for your dog, but they make it easy to understand for you as well. Simple and effective training and tasks have yielded great results in just 2 days of dedicated training! Coupled with 3 days of training with myself and I couldn’t be more pleased with them. If you think your dog is hopeless and can’t be trained, I promise you that Sit Means Sit will be able to help!

Sit Means Sit is the best possible choice I could have made for me and my pup! They helped me work with his specific needs and gave me the tools I needed to feel confident walking my dog around my apartment complex and taking him to public places. He has not been exposed to much in his life, but he has grown so confident in his abilities! We have developed trust with each other and he has behaviorally improved so much thanks to this program!

Awesome experience all the way around! We have a two year old very stubborn & strong willed Malinois that these guys did a great job with. We are very happy with the results & were very impressed with the communication beginning with the consultation , during his five day stay & with the education & insight they provided us with so that we could properly continue Rykers training at home. Great job!

Teddy and Elijah are excellent mentors. They not only helped our dog Camo in her training, they helped us in our understanding of Camos and others dog’s behaviors. Sit means sit is worth every penny, highly recommend this location!

If you are looking for help with your dogs, then Sit Means Sit can be that answer! Teddy and Elijah are very open to your concerns and listen to what you are wanting to get from the training. They explain the process and methods so that you are comfortable with them. Throughout the training they work with your dogs and you to help you succeed. Our dogs were young and energetic retrievers. Their behavior and play was becoming to hard for my wife to be able to manage them. Sit Means Sit was able to teach them behaviors and put them on the path to help them listen and know what to do. Thanks Teddy and Elijah for your help and support!!!

Sit Means Sit does a GREAT job! The owner and trainers know what they are doing and my dog loves them. He has improved so much since he started there. I would recommend them to anyone who’s dog needs any kind of training. They are excellent!

I would highly recommend Sit Means Sit for all your dog training needs. They offer one on one training and group sessions to help with socializing your fur babies. The staff and owner are very professional and knowledgeable. My dog Shadow has come a long way. They have helped us with aggression, obedience, and socialization.

If you are at your wits end and frustrated because you want your dogs to have the life they deserve and to have manners around people, look no further. Within one day train I have seen incredible results with my German shepherd Loki who lives on volume 10. I was nervous about what was in store but after today I’m sold on this program. Our family is so excited to continue with this training and have the family pets we have always dreamed of. I can tell my dog has loved having a job and working towards something. The team here is so incredible and knowledgeable and have been nothing but fantastic in helping me adapt to the program so our pups can succeed. I can confidently recommend this business as number one for training your pets. The investment has already shown it’s worth and we can’t wait to dive in further.

I wish I had come to Sit Means Sit so much sooner. Our dog wouldn’t listen, hated his crate, and barked nonstop. After the first day of training, we immediately saw a difference in our Frenchie. All of the staff have been helpful and Teddy and Elijah were so patient with teaching us how to work with our dog. We can now enjoy our dog more!

Sit Means Sit has been the best decision we made in finding the right trainers for our dog. They take their time to ensure you understand what needs to be done to work properly with your dog to get the desired results. I cannot believe the changes we have seen in our dog since beginning our journey with them. Thank you!!

Rachel D.

My American Bully Chino is sweet, young, stubborn, and spoiled, but since he has been attending Sit Means Sit training I have seen a consistent transformation in his manners! Chino enjoys his classes and the trainers have done a phenomenal job working with him and me. I would recommend them to anyone walking in my shoes!

Michael D.

Sit means sit absolutely exceeded our expectations! We brought our puppy Stevie in because she was having behavioral issues and in just 3 sessions she has become a completely new dog and is so well behaved! The trainers don’t only work with your dog but they also work with you and they make sure you know how to continue the training at home. I would recommend sit means sit to everybody!

Chole R.

We had a great experience with Sit Means Sit! Teddy worked with my schedule and took our pit bull puppy Charlie and started training right away. I am in shock at the difference in her. She is like a completely different dog. We also have a one year old so it was imperative that Charlie listen to commands and after Charlie attended training at Sit Means Sit I can rest easier! I have nothing but good things to say and would highly recommend Sit Means Sit!

Whitney J.

I would recommend Sit Means Sit to everybody. They have absolutely changed the way my dog acts around people, dogs, and new situations. Ellie May is now learning to become a confident puppy that’s excited to try new things. Forever grateful.

Emma S.

Awesome place. Awesome trainers. We were very happy with what they taught our boys and us, and we look forward to Monday night trainings. Money well spent!!

John D.

Unbelievable progress with my 24 week old Boston Terrier pup Hercules! Hercules has only been there three times and is already got the basics down. These guys are amazing. Hercules loves them! Teddy and Abi are so friendly.

David C.

Sit Means Sit helped our entire family! Our Goldendoodle suffered with so much anxiety. She would jump on everyone and bark incessantly. Due to her anxiety it was stressful for the family. After one day at Sit Means Sit, she was a different dog. She was so much calmer and easy to be around. In fact, my husband was so impressed, we decided to get another Goldendoodle. As soon as little Rex is old enough, he will be going to Sit Means Sit!

I have a Great Dane puppy who I started training with at Sit Means Sit of Murfreesboro TN. He was a very shy and unsocialized puppy at first. I went into training just wanting a normal dog because I thought just getting him to that point would be hard. Well, Clyde is now 21 wks old and is the most trained and friendly dog most of my coworkers have ever met. He walks off leash and loves everybody and everything. The confidence that the trainers helped me give my dog is something I will always be grateful for. I am so excited to have a forever trainer for my dogs. I recommend both Abi and Teddy to everyone I meet.

Titan (German Shepard) was out of control, he did what he wanted when he wanted. I met with Abi at sit means sit in tears with no hope, and the thought of I can’t do this anymore. I loved Titan but I was at the point he would have to go to another home. Abi reassured me there was hope, that Titan’s manners would be just as beautiful as he is, to give them a chance to prove it. It was the best decision I ever made. Our first day I was already seeing a difference, it took me a little bit longer to adjust then it did Titan to the commands. Titan and I had a little moment one evening, I FaceTime with Abi next thing I know I got a call from Teddy the owner asking if he could come to evaluate the situation. Teddy stayed with me for about 30-45 minutes working me through the training of Titan until I felt comfortable. I was blown away how these two trainers cared not just about Titan but me as well. Titan is like a new dog, he makes improvements every day. We are finally at the point that I enjoy him being with me all the time!!! We still have things to learn but with Abi and Teddy our goals are within reach!! I truly can not encourage someone enough to go check them out! Sit Means Sit is more than a training facility it’s become a family!! I truly believe and mean that!!!

I literally have nothing but GREAT things to say about Sit Means Sit – Murfreesboro. Teddy, the owner is working with my 13 week old corgi puppy. We just had our 3rd week of training and my stubborn, head-strong little guy has gone from not even coming when I called him, to being obedient, listening, eager to learn, and even doing tricks that I never imagined he’d learn how to do. Our experience so far has been AMAZING!!! My dog adores his trainer and is learning so much. As first-time dog parents, we are so often unsure of how to approach things or how to handle our puppy when he isn’t doing what we need him to do. Teddy has shared a wealth of knowledge with us that has helped more than I can even describe. Whenever I have found myself needing a bit of reassurance that I am doing the right thing when practicing what we learned in that week’s lesson, he has been just a text or a phone call away. That kind of service and commitment is really hard to find, so I am really glad that I chose Sit Means Sit. Dog Training is an investment, and I can honestly say that this is the best investment I’ve made so far for my puppy. We are so impressed, that once our puppy classes are over, we will be moving on to the next phase of training with Teddy. We are really excited about to see all the things that he can teach this sassy little corgi of mine. Let the learning continue!!!!!! I would recommend Teddy to absolutely everyone, without hesitation.

I was in desperate need of a dog trainer and did research on what was being offered. Sit means Sit came up quite a few times so I signed up my beautiful lab. Teddy was amazing from the moment he stepped into the house. He was patient and kind but held command of the situation at all times. I heartily recommend Sit means Sit it was the best decision I made for my dog and myself. Happy family!! 🐕

Kathy R.

My two year old dog Connor has had an amazing turn around with his behavior since completing training with Teddy. A few months ago we were on the brink of finding him another home but since training were able to take walks, eat lunch in busy settings, and interact with other dogs! We’re thankful for Sit Means Sit.

Nicole G.

Amazing program. Our dog responded so well— it was worth every penny. Ken was great with our kids and helped them to be effective with the training.

Christin B.

Teddy was great in teaching my 13 yr old granddaughter to work with her dog. Within the first day we saw results. He was always available to answer our questions and went above and beyond when we needed some extra guidance. Sits Means Sit gave us a much calmer and in control puppy. We very highly recommend Sit Means Sit for your dog training needs!

Lisa S.
Ken did an awesome job with out pug puppy, Cricket. She was biting, jumping, running out of control, not listening and causing physical injury to my elderly mother who owns the puppy. We were at a loss of how to train her. Ken worked with her diligently and has managed to stop all the problems mentioned above. It has been an amazing transformation for both the puppy and the owner. Ken worked with my mom, who being elderly struggled with getting the collar on and using the remote; but, Ken helped in training both the puppy and owner and, she has not had any trouble with the collar or commands. The atmosphere in the house has changed completely now that Cricket has learned to follow some basic rules, and my mom has learned to be the one in charge. Now the two of them enjoy their time together without any injuries or difficult times. We are so blessed to have Ken and this program to help transform a bad situation into a safe, loving environment. I can not say enough thanks to Ken for all his hard work and assistance. I would highly recommend the Sit Means Sit Dog Training to anyone needing help and Ken is absolutely a treasure to have as a trainer.

Sit Means Sit / Teddy is fantastic! I had a dog that was not only aggressive, but killed my chickens. Teddy helped me address both issues and now my new chickens and my dog actually play together. His methods are simple and Teddy is very calm and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

Adam M

Teddy is the BEST thing that happened for my dog, Tucker! He doesn’t offer training, he offers a better quality of life at home. With the commands he learned from a just few days with Teddy, it seemed like he’d been with him for a month! No more: chewing on shoes, biting at our hands, running away when he’s off the leash, and barking and whining uncontrollably. I can’t imagine raising a Terrier with a stubborn and strong personality without Teddy’s training! We are forever thankful, and the things we learned from Teddy also continue to live on in our every lives. Training never stops!

Cayce B

Teddy is very professional and knowledgeable when it came to getting my pup to listen to simple commands. Within a couple of week I was able to walk Bella in Home Depot of leash and she follow every command dispute all the distractions. Thanks for all the help.

John R

Teddy is wonderful to work with. We opted for the 10 day board and train option and even though it was pricy, it was worth it! When we came home from vacation, it was a night and day difference in Gracie’s listening and obedience skills. Before we worked with Teddy, we would never have taken Gracie outside without a leash for fear of her bolting. But now, she runs and plays outside without a leash and comes right back to us when we call. Thank you so much Teddy!

Sydney H

Very Knowledgeable and extremely professional. I passed thru the state for one day and left my dog with the owner for 5 hours. When I picked my dog up she was able to walk without a leash and healed on command next to me. Now when I walk her she stays on my side with out pulling on the leash. Even just an over the phone consultation I was able to learn so much about my dog behaviors. I would definitely recommend Sit means Sit with the Owner Teddy.

Reaching out for dog training was like going to the doctor for help. The first thing they tell you is that people usually have two different outlooks on it: 1. “It’s not going to work.” Or 2. “I can’t wait to see the results!” The problem with that is, you are so excited to see results that you aren’t able to see the change. I was always opposite. I never believed I could finally be motivated to feel like myself, until it happened. It felt the same reaching out for help to train my stress-aggressive dog. Getting him to focus on me through distractions was so exciting, that I couldn’t believe it was happening. I went in thinking that my dog could not be helped due to his history and past experience. I was never able to have friends over, take him places, etc. without worrying about him lunging, snapping or barking at their every move. The end of the consultation with Teddy felt like a miracle. He had my dog following, sitting and looking at him for more direction. I literally had tears in my eyes, seeing what my dog was capable of, just after an hour-long consultation. It just got better and better after each session. By the end of the last session, my dog can ignore, walk and sit past distractions (people and other dogs), sit and stay when the doorbell rings and door opens, come when called, ignore people who come in the house, etc. We still have a long road ahead of us, getting him used to being around people and unusual places, but Teddy has given me the tools and resources to succeed. Highly recommend!

Stephanie V

Our lives changed for the better when Teddy and Ken trained our Luna Belle several months ago. We got her as a rehome at 13 months old in March and knew right away we needed help. She’ll be 2 in February and we count our blessings daily that we invested in top quality training with Sit Means Sit. We highly recommend Teddy and his team to love your dog as their own and help to make them the best lil pupper they can be for themselves and your family!

Rachel J

Ken was such an AMAZING trainer!! He has helped our family so much! Leon was dog aggressive and extremely hard headed, but within a few days, Ken had Leon sitting next to another dog…yes, another dog!! and get this… He didn’t even break eye contact with me the entire time! 😳❤️ I was completely amazed to say the least! He is a totally different dog and responds to the first command instead of looking at me and saying ” yeah right mom” lol The biggest thing is that I can trust him now. I am able to take him for walks without him going crazy after a dog passing by. Ken Travis Thank you so much for helping us, you exceeded all expectations we had! He not only trained Leon, but he taught us how to communicate with him. Ken explained everything he was doing and answered any questions we had. We cannot thank you enough!

Jessica S.

Teddy had our dog, Cyrus for only 5 days and I was amazed beyond belief with the changes that were made in such a short time. Before training, Cyrus would not listen and had many issues with misbehavior. After training, the home is so calm and Cyrus does an amazing job listening. It has been 3 months since training and he continues to work very hard to listen well. Training with Teddy changed the whole atmosphere of our home. I would highly recommend Teddy for all training!

I’ve known Teddy Wall for years through soccer. My sons and he have played in adult soccer league for years… I had purchased a long haired German Shepherd 10 months old weight around 70 lb. and told my son that I needed someone to train him as I was older now and did not want to have to go through training him myself.  My son did some legal work for Teddy and he said,” mom Teddy trains dogs and I said what!  Great I’ll call him.” Best decision I could have made. We met and Teddy took my dog I think it was on Sunday sent me a picture of the next day of this big fluff-ball who would jump and bite at my hands and was just so full of himself, walking calmly off leash with Teddy I could not believe it. I immediately sent pictures to everyone who knew me and knew Tank. He was so good to keep in touch and send me videos every day.  He kept my dog one week and my dog came home calm on command was so well-mannered I just couldn’t believe it, I highly recommend Teddy Wall to anyone that has any kind of a dog bigger small feisty or just needs to be obedience trained you can enjoy your pet so much more if they will listen to you and that’s what Teddy does. Thank you so much Teddy.

Jackie P.

Our sweet little Daisy use to not be “so sweet”. Actually she was a major pain in the rear until Teddy came into the picture. She is so well behaved and quick with her commands now. My 8 year old couldn’t stand her because she would always bite and jump on him. Yes she is a puppy, but she is a huge puppy and it hurt. After Teddy’s training my son and Daisy are now best friends. Nothing but snuggles and kisses. No more biting or jumping. Thank you for everything!

Andi R.

Training our dog was money well spent.  We had our 6-month-old puppy trained, and it exceeded all of our expectations.  It is a joy to know that we will have a well-behaved family dog to enjoy for years to come.  I would highly recommend Teddy!
