About Our Off-Leash Dog Training

Your dog deserves to have the freedom to explore their world, but they need to be trained to do it safely. If you want to ensure your dog still behaves obediently without their leash, then off-leash training may be the solution. Through off-leash training, your dog will gain control over some of their more reactive impulses and learn to respond to commands while not physically tethered to you. Moreover, off-leash training can help your dog behave more calmly in stimulating environments like dog parks, hiking trails, or even large backyards.

How Sit Means Sit Trains Dogs Off-Leash

Sit Means Sit Charleston’s trainers will use effective, trusted methods to optimize your dog’s off-leash behavior. Generally, such training involves:

  • Foundational training with a leash.
  • Utilizing the “sit” command as a confidence tool.
  • Low-level e-collar stimulation to redirect attention.

Our goal is to help your dog develop consistent command responses that strengthen their bond of understanding with you when off-leash. That way, they’ll be able to maintain their independence while understanding the parameters set by your commands.

Darcy graduated!!!! 🎉🥳 Our sweet, timid 1 year old adopted golden Pyrenees is a completely new dog after just 5 full days of boarding/training with Christine! We got her back before Thanksgiving with family and it was a hectic one with kids running around everywhere, jumping around to different houses and not only did she keep her commands, but we were so surprised with the difference in her confidence! She was so scared of a leash, even the sound of the drawer where we kept them made her run off and she would not come to you after. If we ever got her on one it was from carrying her to the car and putting the leash on her while she was in the backseat. We never imagined her being able to do “tricks” Christine taught her (with how much work we thought she needed) but not only did she learn to place, stay, come, sit-she is calmer and less skiddish!! Our first big walk with her was at the Colonial Tree Lighting ceremony and she made it out of the house, down to the park and back effortlessly-like there was never an issue at all! Can’t thank Christine enough and the Sit Means Sit team for the miracle they worked!! Very nice, great customer service and the LOVE they have for your animals 🥹🙏❤️🤗 an investment for sure, but worth every penny!!
