It doesn’t matter if the conversation is revolving around brand new puppies or adult dogs; the truth is that dog training classes, when conducted by professionals with methods that are proven by time, results, and science, will allow your dog to live life to the fullest. Whatever your goals are for your lifestyle, a well-behaved dog can keep up and add endless enjoyment. We believe without a shadow of a doubt that no dog is beyond help, which is why we’ve taken on this role as experts in the field.
No matter the personality, breed, size, age, or behavioral complication, our team of professional dog trainers is ready to help you overcome any and all challenges. Dogs thrive in this environment, where they have boundaries, can communicate, and know what’s expected of them. That’s why this intensive training works. We combine what dogs want with science-backed methods and professional trainers to bring about lasting change.
Dog owners commonly struggle. They struggle with their dog’s behavior when other dogs exist. They struggle to train dogs not to bark excessively, bite, chew, or steal food. Some even battle complex challenges such as aggression, fear, reactivity, and separation anxiety that require more intensive training. No matter what you’re facing, we’re here to help. While other companies might turn away other dog breeds, we’re determined to make Lakewood, CO, a place where every dog can live a fulfilling, adventurous life.
Our trainers are equipped with all the best training methods, including positive reinforcement techniques. It isn’t true that you have to face these things alone. We’re ready and willing to transform your furry friend into a true, lifelong companion. The best way to feel comfortable allowing us to assist is to get a free consultation on the calendar. This way, you can get to know the team, see the facilities, and learn about our advanced training techniques.
Understanding that no two dogs are exactly the same, we have crafted dog training programs that are personalizable based on your goals, your dog’s personality, and any other relevant factors. Our Better, Faster, Smarter approach is, across the board, the best way to get quick results that endure any amount of separation or distraction.
You can find business after business offering to teach basic leash manners and some tricks, but what pet parents struggle to find is a training company that cares about them as if they were family. At Sit Means Sit, we approach behavior modification with the goal of seeing you and your dog forge a bond that can’t be shaken by anything. You’ll be able to travel, hike, go to dog parks, and have people over without having to worry about what your dog will do. With a little help, your dog can be an active part of the community.
On top of utilizing a science-backed training approach, we offer:
Personalized Training
Certified Trainers
Quick Results That Last
Ongoing Support
Many dog trainers use only science. Many dog trainers use only their hearts. The problem is that no one should use one without the other. At Sit Means Sit, our training methods are backed by science and fueled by love. We create a structured environment where dogs can thrive and learn. We foster relationships based on clear communication and trust. The happiest dog is one who knows what’s expected of them and can follow through with confidence.
We saw a gaping hole in Lakewood, where dogs and their parents struggled to connect but craved much more out of life. It created an imbalance in the community. Instead of letting that imbalance fester and create a rift between pets and their owners, we stepped up and provided a solution.
Good behavior is achieved through professional training, but the relationship has to be the end goal, or it’s all for naught. Rest assured that, once you’re done with a program at Sit Means Sit, you will be able to take on anything that life throws at you. You can go on grand adventures, host parties, or simply sit quietly at home in full confidence that your dog is trustworthy and trusts you.

Learn Why Dog owners choose Sit Means Sit Dog Training
Sit Means Sit has been incredible so far! Jon and his staff have done a phenomenal job so far, and have helped out our 9 month old goldendoodle tremendously. We had looked into multiple training classes prior to choosing Sit Means Sit, and was the clear choice for us. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!
Great trainers. Dogs could not walk into the place without barking and pulling. And now they are so much better behaved. There is a lot of support!
This place is staffed with knowledgeable and experienced people who truly love dogs. They worked with my dog, taught us skills and always made themselves available. Facility is nice and clean. Very professional. Kind of pricey but you do gain alot of skills and tools to ensure a positive relationship with your dogs.
Thank you Jon! You and your team are amazing by teaching the skills to take my Labrador Lizzy anywhere I go! I repeatedly get compliments about her skills and good behavior!
Jon is the best! Very professional, knowledgeable, and all around great trainer. Wouldn’t even think about going to somebody different for my fur babies! Highly recommend!
Jon and everyone at Sit Means Sit were great! I am constantly complimented on how Gus interacts with other dogs and people. Jon and his team created a tailored approach to fit Gus’ breed and abilities. I would 100% recommend this group.
Thank you Jon and crew. We get compliments all the time on how well behaved our malinois Ammo is. The training is phenomenal. Training a high energy breed like a malinois takes true talent.
Jon and his team of trainers are excellent! In only three weeks we have seen a tremendous improvement in our young dog. After months of her escaping, chewing up everything in the house, and being unruly, Sit Means Sit has changed her behavior and ours. I cannot recommend their services enough.
Jon has saved us so many times! Yzerman had failed two obedience courses before we called Jon. Thanks to Jon’s time, care, and knowledge Yzerman is the best dog. For reference, If there was a scale of stubborn dogs Yzerman was in the top 10%. Both my husband and I have owned several dogs in our lives without issue, but Yzerman was a doozie. Thanks to Jon, he is the sweetest dog ever. So well behaved. We took Yzerman’s sister Lidstrom to Jon immediately after getting her and she’s been perfect! We get compliments when we walk the dogs in the park about how well behaved the dogs are. I would highly recommend Jon with sit means sit. I have no regrets and will use Jon for our next dog.
Jon is a phenomenal dog and human trainer. We came to him with a rescued 3 year old Shiba Inu, Marlowe, extremely shut down and distrustful, seemingly not trainable, timid yet aggressive with other dogs, children and adults. This breed is typically highly anxious, and our dog had such overpowering anxiety he couldn’t even be taken for walks. The very first day Jon met this dog, there was an instant bond and mastery Jon demonstrated. His understanding and affinity with dogs is outstanding.
We’ve been around dogs our entire lives, and have never seen Jon’s ability to discern an animal’s temperament and know exactly what it needs. His mastery and talent have transformed our dog, and most definitely saved its life. Jon’s skills reflect a passion for care and unmatched results in changing our dog to one now able to happily connect with life, enjoy daily walks, and be affectionate and obedient. Jon is superb at training us human clients as well, totally committed to satisfaction and what’s best for our dog.
Marlowe’s tremendous progress is from Jon’s training mastery, including the techniques he shared with us to ensure Marlowe’s continuing progress. We can’t say enough about Jon’s unique gift.
