Helping Dogs Overcome Anxiety

When your dog manifests anxiety, they might begin to display a lot of behaviors like snapping at people, chewing possessions, displaying aggression, and even becoming incontinent. While it’s okay for dogs to display this behavior occasionally, a dog that suffers from exceptional anxiety might also experience ongoing stress that affects their quality of life. It’s important to help your dog grow their confidence and sense of security so that they can feel more content in a diversity of situations.

Whether your dog experiences anxiety related to separations, unfamiliar environments, loud noises, severe weather, other animals, unknown people or other triggers, Sit Means Sit is ready to help. With our positive reinforcement and encouraging support, your anxious dog can lessen their responses to stressful situations and develop new confidence to face the world.

Empowering Confidence

Lessening anxiety goes hand in hand with building trust, which is why Sit Mean Sit Fort Worth’s expert trainers will use a variety of gentle, science-based tactics to help your dog:

  • Establish strong bonds of communication and trust with you.
  • Focus and gain confidence.
  • Practice impulse control.
  • Learn how to react to anxiety-inducing situations through controlled exposure.
  • Reduce reactive behavior.

Through positive reinforcement, patience and practice, we can help your dog begin to work past their fear, learn what is expected of them, and trust you to keep them safe in new, potentially scary situations.

Nationally Acclaimed Dog Trainers

Sit Means Sit in Keller TX is awesome! We brought our puppy to meet Mindy who gave us a thorough explanation of what the training could produce in our dog if the steps were followed. Ultimately, the end result is going to be determined by the dedication of the owners of their pets to replicate the training as taught by the trainers. Our puppy is responding magnificently!
All the trainers at Sit Means Sit are fabulous! They all truly care about each dog that is in their care and they attentively listen to your goals and concerns and actively work with you to achieve your training goals. Our dog Kaos absolutely loved going to training and spending time with his human and dog friends! He learned so much in four sessions and we are so thankful for everyone’s dedication to our training goals. We can’t wait to begin group classes!
Sit Means Sit has changed life for Millie and me! From the first day at evaluation, everyone was so supportive and kind. Every trainer has worked with us to reach our goal of being a confident, consistent, and well rounded team. The positive support continues now that Millie has completed her initial training. Help is always available by phone, text, going by the office, and the group socialization classes we attend each week. Sit Means Sit has truly made me feel like part of a family. I am truly blessed to work with them and you will be too.
