Puppy Management and Training Near Wall, NJ

We want to make sure you and your new puppy have the best start possible! During the first 16 weeks of your puppy’s life, we focus on helping you build a solid foundation using positive reinforcement, basic obedience, and learning commands, allowing them to age in our Puppy Management Program.

The first 16 weeks are crucial for socialization and training for the future of a confident and well-behaved adult dog. Whether your puppy is hyper, chewing up furniture, or pulling on the leash, we are here to help you teach your dog the skills they need to become the wonderful family dog you have always wanted.

Benefits of Puppy Management:

  • Our Puppy Management program will guide you through raising a puppy into a healthy and happy adult dog, giving you one less thing to worry about!

Dog Training Day Care

Unlike our regular Doggy Day Care program, our Day Train Day Care program is perfect for working pet parents who think their pup might need some extra training help! Once a week, for one week, three weeks, six weeks, or the eight-week diamond program, drop your dog off for a full-day training session with one of our professional dog trainers.

Many owners discover their dogs get better results with the Day Train sessions than a traditional board and train because your dog will learn new skills in small pieces, making it easier for them to generalize new behaviors. Plus, at the end of each session, your dog’s trainer will give you the tools and knowledge to keep practicing what your dog has been learning. Once the program has ended, you will have a private one-on-one session with your trainer to check in. If the behavior we promised is not delivered, we will provide free classes until everyone is happy with the results.

Does your dog love learning? They can continue in Day Train Day Care to learn tricks, agility, and certain service-type behaviors!

This is the perfect option for:

  • Dog parents who with a busy work schedule.
  • Owners who want their pets home at night.
  • A full day of training for dogs with behavioral problems

(*Behavioral training may be covered under some pet insurance policies. Check with your provider!)

Dog Boarding & Training

Going out of town soon, but don’t want your dog to sit around bored or picking up bad habits? Or maybe your dog just needs a little extra consistency in training? We would be glad to host your dog for up to 12 days overnight at our facility, where they will be trained every day!

Whether your dog has serious issues or just needs a little tune-up, they will receive focused attention from our professional team of dog trainers to help reinforce good behaviors and obedience training while you are gone.

After getting their full attention day and night, our trainers will pass on the skills your dog has been working on so you can practice and continue training at home! Once your dog has completed the Board & Train program, you will also have access to group training classes so you can keep improving and building your dog’s confidence and obedience skills.

We have 3-12 day customizable plans for this option.

Reservations for the Board & Train program must be made in advance, so if you are planning a trip out of NJ, please contact us as soon as possible! Instead of simply boarding them or hiring a sitter, let us train them. Not only will they learn new skills, but we will take excellent care of your furry friends like they are our own!

This is a great option if you:

  • Are you too busy to make time for training
  • Are you planning a long vacation
  • Need help to stay consistent with the training process

(*Behavioral training may be covered under some pet insurance policies. Check with your provider!)

Dog Trainers & Staff

Professional trainers. Attentive friendly staff.

Dog Trainer Toms River New Jersey
Ray MedinaOwner/Head Trainer

With over 20 years of dog training experience, I have had the pleasure of working and training with some of the top dog trainers and dog handlers both nationally and internationally.

Some of my recent accomplishments include providing Sport Dog and Protection Dog seminars, Obedience Classes, general dog in-services and training for specialized protection dog groups. I also am a Dog Sport Club Training Director and Instructor.

In addition to providing education and training services, I continue to attend countless training seminars and continuing education hours to include some of the most recent and up to date training techniques in the pet/dog industry. I also have my Dog First Aid/CPR certification, updated yearly.

My passion for training dogs has taken me to multiple Sport Dog competitions from AKC Obedience to Protection Sport Association (PSA). In the last few years with my dog ‘Rocky”, we have accomplished some of the highest levels of recognition in the Dog Sport world. Achieving multiple Regional and National Championships. This included 2015 PSA Level3 USA National Champion, 2016 PSA Level3 USA Highest scoring team of the year, 2017 PSA Level3 USA Regional Champion, 2017 PSA Level3 USA National Champion, 2018 PSA Level3 USA Regional Champion, 2019 PSA Level3 Canadian National Champion.

Throughout all my years of training I have learned the greatest enjoyment for me is being able to help and give others the ability to communicate with their dogs, creating a long lasting relationship. I truly feel blessed to be able to give back to the community by showcasing Sit Means Sit training as a smarter, faster and more reliable form of training to all.

While training dogs is my passion, I also have 6 dogs in my  own”pack” at home including 4 Malinois, 1 German Shepherd, and the boss of the house, our rescue dog “Star”.

Honestly the best decision I made was having my dog trained through Sit Means Sit. The price is totally worth the investment you will receive for years to come!
