About Our High-Distraction Dog Training

Is your dog easily distracted by the sight of a squirrel, person, or another dog across the street? At Sit Means Sit, we understand the challenges of training in the real world, which is why our expert trainers specialize in High-Distraction Dog Training. We’ll teach your dog to focus and respond even in situations with high levels of distraction, giving you more confidence when taking your dog out in public.

How We Successfully Train High-Distraction Dogs:

  • Building Focus: We’ll take Fido through exercises designed to improve their attention even when in high-distraction environments, helping to build a successful foundation for training.
  • Positive Reinforcement: We use rewards and reinforcement to strengthen desired behaviors, encouraging your canine companion to maintain focus and respond appropriately despite distractions.
  • Real-World Scenarios: Training sessions will take place in locations with increasing levels of distraction (parks, pet stores, and other public places), simulating real-world scenarios.
  • Empowering Your Dog: Our goal is to help your dog face everyday challenges with confidence, knowing they can rely on you (their owner) for direction.

Contact us today to start your training journey and transform your dog into a well-behaved, focused companion.

Dave was instrumental in creating a training approach for my dog Willa and I that was effective and also catered to her specific needs/personality. It was immediately clear upon meeting him the care and energy he puts into his craft as a dog trainer. He took his time to ensure that I understood how to best support Willa in training at the lessons and also at home.

I was beyond impressed by how quickly I noticed a change and improvement in Willa just after lesson one! He helps to establish clear boundaries for the dog and teach the handler how to put the lessons into practice in an approachable, step by step guide.

While the training journey has just begun for her and I, I cannot thank Dave enough for his help and support thus far! Sit Means Sit is an incredible program led by Dave and I highly recommend it to those who want a training program that will give you the skills to support your dog and their training journey for the rest of their life! Willa and I thank you so much!!

Dave is amazing! I have a 3 year old chihuahua/terrier mix, which is just an absolutely insane combination. Dave’s program worked like a charm to help focus her and, simply put, turn on her listening ears. She’s gained so much confidence in the last month and her behavior is noticeably calmer. I’d recommend Sit Means Sit to anyone looking to learn the fundamentals of dog training and for anyone who’s ready to commit to the consistency it takes to get true results.
