Matt is an amazing trainer! I would definitely recommend him as a trainer. My boyfriend and I have…read morea Siberian Husky who had major behavioral problems. He would not listen at all. He was constantly eating the furniture, jumping on everyone and everything, he didn't listen when it was time to come inside and I would eventually have to carry him in the house, and he would cry and scream when it was time to put him in the crate if we were leaving or going to bed. We didn't know what to do but after looking for trainers, we came across Matt's website. After meeting with him and having him go over a few training techniques with our puppy, we knew he would be a big help. When we got the puppy back, we could see a huge change in his behavior. When Matt started his training, our puppy was 6 months old. He is now 13 months and is still just as great as when we got him back. He listens on the first command, there's no longer a struggle to come inside or go in his crate, and now he understand were the boss.

I would highly recommend Neil with Sit Means Sit. When I first met with Neil my dog was struggling…read morewith some issues that I didn't quite understand (he acted like he wanted to kill dogs on walks, but was fine at daycare... he barked like he wanted to kill strangers, but actually loves to be pet... etc etc). He was not only a nuisance around our apartment, but was actually rather embarrassing. I had previously met with a behavioral trainer and a traditional trainer closer to me (Rockland Co.) but neither one of them GOT my dog or his issues. They didn't see what I saw and were entirely dismissive of my concerns. From the first meeting with Neil, it was a completely different vibe. He listened to my concerns, anticipated behaviors before I explained them, and assured me that we could work on the issues without changing his personality or creating a robot dog. Perhaps most importantly, my dog immediately took to him and loved him (this is a dog who is usually a bit wary around new people). While Orion is still working on his training, his ability to focus and ignore background issues has improved in an astounding way. The group classes are also a wonderful perk to the training curriculum. They are fun and really help to enforce the dog's focus in different environments. While you can find tons of rave reviews about Sit Means Sit online.... I think that Neil is truly what sets this particular location apart. From his ability to connect with the animals, to his understanding of common (and maybe some not so common) behavioral issues, to his patience, and ability to explain things in a light hearted way... he makes the training experience much more fun and turns it into a bonding experience with your pet, rather than feeling like you are punishing your dog ... you just feel like you are having fun together while both learning new things. Neil not only takes pride in his work, but truly takes all of "his dogs" successes as a personal matter. You can see his pride when he sees one of the dogs "get it" and you can tell how much he loves what he does. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Neil to anybody looking for a trainer, even if they have been let down by trainers before. This experience will be different... I can promise you that. Thank you Neil for all you have done! - Rae and Orion

I researched multiple different training programs and approaches to try and find the best way to…read morehelp control my overly excitable galoot of a Bernese pup, and the folks at Sit Means Sit were by far and away the most obvious choice. Everything about their instruction is focused on both the person and their dog learning TOGETHER, not simply drilling commands. The dedication of the trainers and love of their work is evident, and their success is delightfully undeniable when you meet their own dogs that come with them to work and see how beautifully behaved and happy they are. A billion stars, 1000% positive experience.

My wife and I had acquired a new German Shepherd puppy and needed to get her into some training…read more We searched online but there were simply too many choices and too much information to try and make a decision. Fortunately, my wife who works in the Health care field met some women and their therapy dogs who were the most pleasant, well behaved and caring dogs she's ever met. She of course asked where the dogs received their training and they told us about Three Dogs Training. So we immediately enrolled and were not disappointed at all as the class was enjoyable and stimulating both for us and our puppy. Our instructor, Lisa Edwards showed us how easy and fun it is to train your dog and it has allowed us to teach our dog proper manners. If you have a dog that needs training, a puppy that needs some basic socialization or want some help in choosing a dog that mets your lifestyle then check them out.

There aren't enough stars there to adequately rate Lisa Edwards! I have been a client for 8 years…read more She has worked with me and my dogs in the private setting also and, together, we have successfully trained 2 service dogs and 2 therapy dogs. I have had very anxious dogs and a resource guarder, and Lisa has shown me how to manage these issues without using aversive training, only positive reinforcement ... and a sense of humor. I hate to think where my dogs would be if it weren't for her. She speaks dog with love and understanding and deals with their humans patiently (I imagine that it the hardest part of her job.) and without making us feel foolish. Will we ever stop attending Three Dogs Training classes? Only if Lisa retires!

Angelo saved our dog's life -- and I mean that in the most literal sense possible…read more Oliver is a rescue who had been surrendered by two families before us. We took him in, loved him, and still found ourselves in crisis -- biting, aggression, resource guarding. We were scared of our dog and desperate for help. Oliver was our fifth dog and as a family we were seasoned users of positive reinforcement as the primary training method. We turned to Angelo at Art of K9 and made the decision to board Oliver for 8 weeks. He took on Oliver after a thorough consultation. Angelo worked through Oliver's aggression and resource guarding using the e-collar and other training tools. These methods gave us the ability to communicate with and control our dog in a way positive reinforcement couldn't. The transformation is hard to put into words. Oliver is now relaxed, cuddly, and genuinely at peace. He still has his moments -- but now we have the tools to handle them. This has changed everything. If you have a dog with serious aggression or resource guarding and you're at your breaking point, I highly recommend Angelo. He didn't just train Oliver -- he saved his life and we are so thankful.

We sent our dog Monsi to Angelo- originally because of socialization problems, yet she surprised us…read moreand came out with so many higher level qualities we didn't anticipate or know was possible. At first, we second guessed our choice to leave Monsi for 6-weeks because we missed her. Every time we checked in with Angelo, he updated us, but we missed our fur baby so much. Now, afterwards, I can't stop recommending this program to everyone I know. It's a worthwhile investment IF you plan to KEEP UP with it. All of Angelo's work can easily be undone with dog owners that do not upkeep the foundation he creates. Currently our dog listens to each command after one time saying it, she is walking off leash behind us, does not lurk around the table while we eat or cook, stays in place for 2-hours and counting, and more. Overall, she has many service dog qualities. I need to give credit where it is due because our dog was unsure of herself, very anxious, annoying at times because she didn't know what to do during quiet hours at home and needed way too much physical exercise (4+ hours daily). He taught us, and our dog Monsi, that exercise and socialization looks different than we thought. Monsi is the dog we dreamed of and didn't know how to achieve. He tapped into her potential. She does not impede our life in anyway. She adds on to the quality and is stress free now that we know how to maintain and handle her. Not only that, but my parents sent their dog at the same time as our dog. So now we have two dogs that listen to the same command. We can bring our dogs on vacation and have complete calm and fun with them present. This was the greatest gift to a life of joy with a well trained fur family member! Thank you Angelo and Art of K9. I know picking a program at such a cost is nerve recking since there is not enough information or proof online but promise me, this is the place. We put a lot of trust into prior reviews and tiktok/Instagram videos.... We got lucky finding this place. It's a hidden gem of Westchester. If anyone needs more details to convince you this program is worth it, contact me. I'll convince you- haha!

From day one, the communication, reliability, and genuine care have stood out. My dog is not easy to walk just because of his size. Olivia took the time to meet him and assess him and found the best dog walker that would fit my dogs needs. Jen is our dog walker and she is truly exceptional. You can tell she doesn't just "walk dogs" -- she really connects with them. My dog lights up every time Jen arrives, and that peace of mind is priceless. Jen is attentive, patient, and always goes the extra mile, whether it's making sure my dog gets the right amount of exercise or sending thoughtful updates and photos after each walk. The report cards she writes are my favorite part of my work days. It's rare to find someone you trust completely with your pet, but Jen and Olivia have earned that trust and more. If you're looking for a dog walker or pet trainer who treats your dog like their own, this is the company -- and Jen and Olivia are a big reason why.
