Sit Means Sit Dog Training

I trained my White German Shepherd with a local dog academy and a big-​box petstore trainer for over a year. I followed the programs, attended the classes and trained with my dog regularly at home. I was still not seeing measurable results and had a dog that was routinely jumping up, nipping and generally doing whatever he wanted. Training was becoming more frustrating than rewarding, and the behavioral problems with the dog were a significant issue. I was not eager to join another school when I had already paid for lifetime group lessons and additional one-​on-​one training with the academy and the pet store, but the problems with the dog were too significant for me to just stick with the same failed approach to training.
I found SMS by searching the internet for the best dog trainers in Denver and went in for a consultation. They did an evaluation and a training session, and the results were profound. I was able to control the jumping and biting after one session and within a couple of weeks I had a dog that would stay for an extended period of time and respond to a number of other commands. I had been working with the other trainers on this for over a year, and had seen no improvement at all.
One of the things I like most about SMS is that they put a lot of effort into the group lessons. The focus is not about getting your dog to a certain benchmark and then asking for more money or sending you off to train on your own. One of their group classes is geared towards advanced training and I have been amazed at what I have been able to teach my dog is those sessions. The agility training, obstacle courses and advanced dog handling techniques have been great for building confidence in my dog and strengthening our bond. One of the other schools I had attended offered advanced training for additional per-​lesson fees, but this has all been included with SMS training.
I started my training with the SMS in Westminster and then transferred to the Longmont/​Firestone location when I moved to Northern Colorado. A couple of other things that I like about the Longmont/​Fireston location are the ability to join a flyball league and the opportunity to get your dog certified as a therapy dog and work with the community.

After talkin to the owner I would like to retract my former review she is obviously a dog lover and responsible caregiver. The woman I spoke to pteviously was not the owner or even an employee, just someone she allowed to use her space.
