Making Meeting Others Easier

Being around a lot of different people and animals can be both overstimulating and overwhelming for dogs. This might bring out a few bad habits in your furry friend, like aggression, anxiety and reactivity. You certainly don’t want these behaviors to put a dent in your pup’s ability to meet new friends, which is why it’s important to teach them proper social skills.

Socialization training from Sit Means Sit Cleveland will help your dog learn to react calmly, kindly and openly to new people and situations. With our expert guidance, your pup can learn to embrace the excitement of everyday life without becoming too much for their owner (or those around them) to handle.

Why Socialization Training?

Think of dog socialization training as your ticket to make everything from daily walks to dog park visits easier. Dogs that stay calm, obey and interact kindly with other people and pups are a lot easier to manage. Plus, they often enjoy life a lot more themselves.

As part of Sit Means Sit’s socialization program, your dog can unlock good behaviors that help them:

  • Adapt comfortably to new situations.
  • Eliminate anxiety in social environments.
  • Improve confidence and reactions around others.
  • Interact and play well with other dogs.
  • Remain focused and obedient to commands.

More importantly, training reinforces loyal, trusting bonds between owner and dog, ensuring that your life together is happy, harmonious and full of fun.

Nationally Acclaimed Cleveland Westside Dog Trainers

I have been to Sit Means Sit Cleveland with two dogs, different ages for different classes. I highly recommend Sit Means Sit for dogs of all ages. Their Puppy training classes turned my wild fun puppy into a listening wild fun puppy and their advanced classes are equally as great.. They truly care about your dog as much as you do.. 5 stars all the way around..
I took my English Mastiff puppy to Sit Means Sit Cleveland for Puppy Preschool. The dog trainers are very engaged and knowledgeable. I saw a total transformation in my puppy by the end of the 6 weeks. I can’t wait to get him enrolled into something else! I would highly recommend Sits Means Sit Westside for any puppy or doggo training needs you may have!
I would give Sit Means Sit Cleveland 10 stars! The genuine love and care they provide while incorporating training was more than we ever expected with our little deaf girl Mazie. Mike and his dog training team are incredible. Looking forward to the group classes and continuing to work with them. I cannot thank them enough.
