Sit Means Sit West Houston is a dog training franchise location in Rosenberg, with a training facility in downtown Rosenberg that serves Sugar Land, Richmond, Fulshear and Katy.

Programs

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy program is a 6 week course for small breed puppies under 4 months old, covering sit, heel, come, place, leave-it, release, potty training and socialization with reward based training; graduates receive an AKC form, a ribbon, a certificate and a graduation photo. A ten-day board and train lets a dog stay with the trainers, and day training works on a drop-off and pick-up basis, with homework reviewed at pick-up. Private lessons of about an hour can be held in the home, at the facility or out in the community.

First aid class

A one week First Aid and CPR class meets once a day for five days and covers emergencies, shock, vitals, restraint, muzzling, bleeding and toxins, with hands-on CPR practice. It costs $200.00 and is taught by David Barnes, described as a Certified Veterinarian Technician and certified in dog CPR.

What to ask

Ask which training tools are used beyond the puppy program and how a package is priced after the free evaluation.
