At Sit Means Sit South Orange County, we have made it our mission to help dogs and dog owners develop strong, lasting bonds by teaching obedience training with proven, science-backed methods. We serve San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano, Rancho Santa Margarita, Mission Viejo, Lake Forest, and other South Orange County communities south of Newport Beach.
If you’re struggling with leash pulling, excessive barking, chewing, or even fear and aggression, know that you’re not alone. Other dogs all over the place are working on the same issues. Thankfully, they (and you) don’t have to do it alone. Whether we come to your neighborhood or you meet us at our facility, our team of professional dog trainers is ready and excited to show you just what your pup is capable of.
The start of this process is always a free in-home consultation. This allows our trainer to take stock of your dog’s behavior, learn about your goals, and introduce you to our training methods. We want you to be informed and comfortable before beginning the journey.
With our collective years of experience, we’ve seen it all. We’ve helped even aggressive dogs overcome extreme challenges and become happy, confident, and calm companions that can go anywhere and do anything. We’re so confident in our ability to help you that we offer ongoing support with our Lifetime Training Guarantee and group classes, just in case you run into any problems and you need a little assistance from time to time.
