    Day 6 of Ruby's training - she will "go to place" wherever we ask, even a red fire hydrant....

    Our dog Ruby just completed her 6 full days of training at Sit Means Sit in Valhalla NY. Although sweet and loving with us, every time we saw another dog she would go into crouch position, readying to lunge and bark like crazy. This stress made every walk a dreaded experience. I trained her with treats and tried every recommendation I could find, to avail. Although pricey, we decided to try Sit Means Sit. Ruby is 3 years old annd we hope to have her for many years, so we decided the cost was worth it and we are so happy that we did! Neill, Chris, Sam and Alexa are all incredibly kind and love dogs. They bring their own dogs to work - seeing Chris with his large dog Wiley was an inspiration to us. We decided if Ruby learns even half of what Wiley does, we would be happy. Ruby is a high energy golden doodle, and we can now walk her in a heel position. When we see another dog, we tell her to sit and look at us instead of her former crazy aggressive barking and lunging. She is a pleasure to walk, which is one reason we wanted a dog (to make me exercise more...) I highly recommend this dog training business!

    Had a 10am appointment today and no one showed up. Tried calling and texting no reply. Waste of time ~ drove from New Rochelle to Valhalla.

    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!

    If it weren't for Betsy Schwartz and her amazing assistant Alice, I don't know if we would've been…read moreable to keep our dog. Julius Caesar was rescued from an abusive home and was going to be put down because there was no room for him at the shelter. What started as a foster quickly became an adoption because we knew he needed our love and help. He was highly reactive and terrified of almost everything-- people, sounds, other animals, etc. It was almost impossible to calm him and get him to stop barking. We started at PCOTC and tried two different instructors, who were great, but there was no difference in Julius's behavior. I'm grateful we didn't give up because once we found Betsy and Alice, everything changed for the better. They understood him on a completely different level than other instructors. Their support and encouragement are what made his progress possible. After one year of their weekly classes, Julius has become his best self!! People think he's been medicated or simply a different dog because of how much he's changed!! He now gets excited to go to class, see all his friends, and show off his outfits. We couldn't be happier that he finally feels safe and comfortable in his own home. These extraordinary ladies deserve a RAISE and the fattest bonus because they helped us save our fur baby. Even though Julius doesn't need much training anymore, we plan to continue with Betsy and Alice's classes because we are beyond grateful for all they've done and enjoy watching him improve. So much love and appreciation for them both; thank you for working a true miracle

We have taken everything from puppy class to advanced courses in competitive K9 sports. Teachers are wonderful. Fellow students are great. The club is clean and never smells like "dog". We have done well with our dog and her training at Port Chester Obedience Training Club. Just look at our little girl and what she has been able to accomplish in only 2 years of training.
