About Sit Means Sit Dog Training Hawaii

Board and train for the islands

Sit Means Sit Dog Training Hawaii is the Haiku-based Hawaii location of the Sit Means Sit franchise, and it describes itself as serving all of the Hawaii islands. Its core offer is the Transformation Academy, a board and train program with weekday boarding and "transfer of leadership" private training sessions, aimed at owners with busy schedules. Several boarding options let the team work with dogs from across the islands, and new clients start with a free evaluation.

Programs

A puppy management program covers puppies 8-16 weeks old, built around socialization during the first 16 weeks. Advanced and specialty classes, including an advanced off-leash obedience class, are open to clients who have completed private lessons or an immersion program. Board & Review brings board and train graduates back to polish their skills. Behavioral modification training covers aggressive, high anxiety and fear, high-distraction, off-leash, reactive and socialization cases, and individualized one-on-one obedience and behavior management programs are offered for dogs of any age or breed.

For groups and professionals

The team also runs seminars on training basics and a Lunch & Learn program for veterinarians, groomers, boarding kennels and other businesses that handle dogs, plus appreciation programs for military members and first responders.
