Ah, spring in Seattle—when the rain finally lets up just enough for everyone to remember the sun exists. The cherry blossoms pop, the trails fill up, and suddenly, every dog in the city is experiencing an existential crisis.

One minute, your pup is chilling all winter, wrapped up like a burrito on the couch. The next? They’re out here sprinting through puddles like they’re training for the Seattle Marathon. And let’s be real—you’re not controlling that leash. That leash is controlling you.

We get it. You thought your dog would naturally "settle down" as they got older. You thought that maybe, just maybe, they'd wake up one day and say, "You know what? Today’s the day I stop acting like a caffeinated tornado."

Yeah. That never happened.

And now here you are, getting dragged down Green Lake, apologizing to strangers while your dog lunges at literally everything that moves. Leash pulling, jumping, barking, running away—sound familiar? It’s time for a change. It’s time for dog training that actually works.

Welcome to Got Sit Dog Training—where we turn your wild pup into a well-behaved companion, just in time for spring adventures.


Spring Fever? More Like Spring Chaos

The days are longer. The trails are busier. The squirrels? Oh, they’ve been waiting for this moment all year.

Your dog sees spring as a personal invitation to lose their mind. That calm, lazy pup you had in the winter? Yeah, they’re gone.

Leash pulling? Worse than ever.
Jumping on people? Like a kangaroo on Red Bull.
Barking? Non-stop. At birds, at joggers, at the wind—doesn’t matter.

It’s like they spent the whole winter saving their energy just to test your patience. But don't worry—Got Sit Dog Training is here to help.

We specialize in:

  • Leash training (because you should be walking the dog, not the other way around)
  • Jumping correction (so your pup stops treating strangers like a trampoline)
  • Excessive barking solutions (because you don’t need noise complaints from your HOA)

If your dog is treating every spring outing like an Olympic event, it's time to get them trained before they embarrass you again.


Seattle’s Not Ready for Your Untrained Dog

Look, Seattle loves dogs. We've got off-leash parks, dog-friendly breweries, even coffee shops that serve “puppuccinos” (because of course we do). But there’s a big difference between a dog-friendly city and a city that’s ready for your untrained dog.

Your pup isn’t ready for social outings if they:

  • Steal food off tables at outdoor restaurants
  • Bark at every moving object like it personally insulted them
  • Jump on people like they’re old friends from college
  • Bolt the second you unclip the leash

Seattle’s chill, but no one wants to be tackled by your overexcited golden retriever while they’re sipping a $7 latte.

That’s why behavioral training is a must. Our methods focus on real-world scenarios—not just sterile training rooms. We train your dog where they actually need to behave: your home, your neighborhood, the coffee shop patio, the hiking trails.

Because if your dog can’t chill in a public setting, are they even a Seattle dog?


Outdoor Adventures Without the Drama

Seattle is home to some of the best hiking and outdoor adventures in the country. But guess what? None of that matters if your dog treats every trail like a racetrack and every squirrel like a mortal enemy.

Ever been on a hike where:

  • Your dog sees a deer and decides they’re suddenly a wolf?
  • They ignore you completely and sprint down the trail?
  • They roll in something so foul that you start reconsidering pet ownership?

It’s not fun. And it’s why off-leash reliability training is so important.

With our recall training, we teach your dog to come back the first time you call—no more shouting their name like you’re in a bad horror movie. Imagine enjoying a stress-free hike where you don’t have to worry about your pup vanishing into the wilderness. That’s the dream, right?

We can make it happen.


Potty Training: Because Spring Cleaning Shouldn't Involve Your Carpet

Ah yes, spring cleaning—a time to declutter, reorganize, and hopefully not find surprise puddles in your living room.

If your dog is still treating your home like an all-access bathroom, it's time for house training. Because stepping in something wet inside your house should only happen if you spilled your coffee.

Whether you’ve got:

  • A puppy that hasn’t figured it out yet
  • A rescue with bad habits
  • An older dog that suddenly forgot the rules

We’ve got proven potty training methods that will put an end to indoor accidents for good.

Because no one wants to spend another spring scrubbing carpets and questioning their life choices.


Your Spring Training Starts Now (And No, We’re Not Talking About Baseball)

Spring is about fresh starts. New beginnings. And that includes your dog’s behavior.

Whether your pup is struggling with:

  • Leash pulling (before you dislocate a shoulder)
  • Jumping on guests (before your in-laws stop visiting)
  • Excessive barking (before your neighbors file a noise complaint)
  • Separation anxiety (because you shouldn’t have to sneak out of your own house)

We’ve got the solution.

At Got Sit Dog Training, we don’t do gimmicks. No clickers, no treats-only training, no complicated nonsense. Just real-world training that works in real-life situations.

And the best part? We come to you. No need to drive across town to some training facility that smells like a thousand nervous Labradors. We train in your home, your park, your world—because that’s where your dog actually needs to listen.
