Sit Means Sit for our obedience training needs.\u00a0 I took the pamphlet, not knowing if we would need formal training or not.\u00a0 After a few weeks, we noticed Jesse had some behavioral problems.\u00a0 She pulled at the leash when we walked her, she chewed on table legs, she chased her feline brothers, she didn&#8217;t listen when called, and she escaped from the house several times for romps around the neighborhood.\u00a0 After unsuccessfully trying to train her ourselves, we decided to call Kerry.\u00a0 Kerry &amp; Dave came to the house for a demonstration a few days later, and Jesse immediately showed that she was able and willing to listen to commands given.\u00a0 We purchased the training package and set up our first training session.\u00a0 After that first session, Jesse sat &amp; stayed upon command, came when called, and sat in place when told&#8230; even when there were other, distracting dogs around!\u00a0 We worked with Jesse and her new training collar for the next 2 weeks on our own, and then Kerry &amp; Dave returned for a follow-up session.\u00a0 Following that session, Jesse was able to heel perfectly!\u00a0 Now we&#8217;re looking forward to attending group classes, to make sure Jesse stays current on her new obedience skills!<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t recommend Sit Means Sit enough.\u00a0 The program works quickly and effectively, and it is worth the initial cash outlay.\u00a0 Jesse was always a good dog, but now she obeys us when we need her to obey us.\u00a0 Training doesn&#8217;t eliminate her personality, either.\u00a0 When it&#8217;s appropriate for Jesse to romp, jump and bark, she can; when we want Jesse to be quiet and calm, she will.\u00a0 And thanks to the lifetime membership to Sit Means Sit, we&#8217;re confident that Jesse will retain her new skills forever!<\/p>\n<p>Andrea and Brent LaRowe: Chicago, IL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we adopted Jesse from the Animal Welfare League, the front desk staff recommended Kerry &amp;
