About Sit Means Sit Dog Training

Sit Means Sit Raleigh – trading as Raleigh Dogs LLC – runs from a north Raleigh base and serves Wake and Durham counties. Its own page says the team "has helped thousands of Triangle families build a dog they're proud to take anywhere – off leash, in public, around distractions, and at home," and it is led by Colby Self, whom the site describes as "a trainer with 14+ years of experience and a background in military and law enforcement instruction."

The method as the business describes it

The business names its approach the Attention-Based Training System and explains it as teaching the dog "to focus on you first – making every command more reliable in any environment, with any distraction." Its published promise is framed around distraction-proofing rather than around a single obedience syllabus.

Getting started and what programs include

A consultation and live demonstration at the facility is free and takes about an hour; an in-home consultation is listed at $50, applied to any training program. Consultations run Monday to Friday, 11am to 7pm, and Saturday 9am to 4pm. Every program is published as including private lessons, the training equipment needed, and group class membership for ongoing practice. Weekday Board & Train runs two-week and three-week options in which the dog lives and trains with the team Monday to Friday, with a Friday lesson each week and a hands-on Leadership Transfer Lesson when the dog goes home.
