But when Buck came to Sit Means Sit, he found his true calling! We like to say that he&#8217;s &#8220;a working dog, not a petting dog&#8221; because Buck is a working dog through and through. Our favorite thing about Buck is that he never turns down a new challenge. Buck is a trendsetter, and he can be found around the facility doing some of the coolest tricks you\u2019ve ever seen.\u00a0<\/span>We love you, Buck!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000080\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2909 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/CF9CD6A3-2C89-48CC-9825-D38942830359-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Buster<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When Buster started out, he was so reactive towards dogs that his mom wondered if he\u2019d ever be able to go out and enjoy life with her. However, with training, Buster completely turned his life around. At 12 years old, he is a retired therapy dog that continues work by providing that rare calm, reassuring energy at SMS and helping dogs become their best selves. He never deviates from his job, making him a valued addition to the crew.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #000080\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2911 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-768x769.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-1534x1536.jpg 1534w, https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/portland-dog-training\/files\/2023\/02\/IMG_8123-2046x2048.jpg 2046w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Penelope\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Oh sweet Penelope\u2026what\u2019s not to love?
