Henry just rocked his 3rd puppy lesson! In Henry's first puppy lesson, hopping on "place" was very scary. By lesson 2, he was hopping on and staying. By lesson 3? Doing it with distraction dog Bindi sharing the space!

Way to go baby Henry! 🥰❤️

From Ava's mom: "When we first adopted Ava it was very apparent that she was scared of men. We know she had some abuse in her background as they found bb pellets under her skin when she was first rescued off the streets. This was Ava today with her Grandpa Dave-she went right up to him for lovings and even wanted to give him a big hug!"

Here at Sit Means Sit Des Moines, we are honored to be Ava's trainers, and work with dogs like her every day. Working through fear, reactivity and anxiety to come out the other side with more confidence and room for more fond memories is what it's all about. Thank you for trusting us with Ava, and for letting us be a small part of your family. ❤️

We train dogs of any shape and size! Belle and her mom just finished up their initial private lessons. Belle started training because she needed a little extra help with potty training, over-excitement with people and darting out the door!

Ava is here for the weekend while her mom and dad are out of town! We love having miss Ava with us! Ava originally started with us shortly after being adopted and displaying some stranger danger behavior with new people. Now Ava comes to group classes and has formed new friendships with her parents' friends and family. Proud of you, Ava!
