When talking about small dogs, the first thing most people think is that they're little terrors. Ankle-biters, mean, and demonic.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Lots of pros even when asked their least favorite dog breed, they'll say "Chihuahua!" ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Today we take some time to un-pack that and figure out where it stems from, along with what causes Small Dog Syndrome - aka what causes small dogs to become monsters. ​​​​​​​​

Introducing Level Up Your Pup: Essentials!

Level Up Your Pup: Essentials is a ✨brand new✨ dog training membership brought to you by the hosts of Let's Talk Sit!

🎮 We were inspired by the levels in a video game and created Essentials to help dog owners understand the steps needed to train their dogs at home.

🎯 We provide tangible goals for each level of every cue so you know exactly when your dog is ready to move to the next level.

This course is mainly aimed toward puppies and new pet owners but is also great for dogs of all ages with owners who want to understand basic dog training.

We will be updating this membership every single month and we will be adding more obedience cues, answers to YOUR questions, different ways to teach cues, videos, and more!
