Training Philosophy
Our trainers use reward based training methods to teach manners and commands to your dog. In order to solve a dog’s particular behavior issue, we work with the client to eliminate the factors that created it in the first place. Our approach is much more effective than merely offering corrections directed only at the symptoms. Proper training eliminates confusion, which results in increased confidence and less insecurity. So there is a behavioral component to all training we do with your dog.

So much to say about this amazing place!! Today is the last day of our 20 program and I couldn’t be happier with how far my puppy has come! My pup is always excited to come into the facility!! The staff is AWESOME! It is a great feeling to leave their facility and know that my puppy is in great hands!! We set goals with our INCREDIBLE Trainer Janet, and with her help met all of our goals!!! So do yourselves a favor and run to I Said Sit! If you listen to what your trainer says and act on it you will be extremely thrilled as I am with this training program!! Thank you again Janet and thank you I Said Sit!!

I highly recommend your organization for behavior training, boarding, and all the other services that you offer. I am a dog and cat lover and can guarantee you that the first stop I make when I get another dog will be “I Said Sit!”. I will not bring another dog to my home until you have spent 30 days with the animal working your magic. Thank you for saving my dog and my sanity.

We've got the answers for your questions
Seriously, if you have any questions about training your dog, we have the answers.
We have created a directory of licensed dog trainers specializing in positive reinforcement methods. These trainers are not affiliated with Dogo, and all information is gathered from publicly available sources. Each profile provides a brief overview of the trainer's experience and expertise.
Start by evaluating your dog's needs and identifying your training objectives. Each trainer's profile provides insights into their areas of expertise. Match these with your dog's character and your goals to find the ideal fit.
All trainers listed here are certified professionals with extensive knowledge of positive reinforcement techniques.
Positive reinforcement centers on rewarding preferred behaviors, ensuring a pleasant learning journey for your dog. This humane approach is scientifically proven to be the most effective long-term training method, strengthening the bond between you and your pet. By consistently rewarding good behavior, your dog learns to associate actions with positive outcomes, leading to lasting improvements and a happier companion.
Yes, they are. Our trainers are adept in basic obedience or intricate behavioral challenges. Browse their profiles to identify a trainer who specializes in the particular issues you wish to address.
Simply click on the preferred trainer's profile to access their contact details. From there, you can get in touch to discuss your requirements and set up training appointments.
Group sessions offer a communal setting where your dog learns general obedience alongside other dogs. In contrast, private sessions grant focused attention, making them perfect for targeted behavior modifications or individualized training agendas.
All our trainers are committed to positive reinforcement techniques and steer clear of any harsh or punitive methods. Their primary goal is to make training a joyous journey for you and your dog.
Results depend on factors like your dog's nature, the specific behaviors in question, and your training consistency. While many clients observe improvements in just a few sessions, it's crucial to be patient and persistent.
Reach out to the trainer you're interested in to discuss possibly attending a session. It's a great way to get a feel for their approach and see if it aligns with your expectations.
