About OurAggressiveDog Training

This is perhaps one of the most dangerous and serious types of misbehaviors, which must be corrected as soon as it’s discovered. Dogs who bite or display unwanted aggression are not good housemates, and many people give up, sending the dogs to a high-kill shelter because they are just too dangerous.

Because of the bacteria in a dog’s mouth, a dog bite that breaks the skin presents a number of issues. Not only does it cause pain to your guests or even your children, but it is prone to infection, leaving you with a pile of medical bills and perhaps even lawsuits. Once a dog has attacked a person, they are subject to quarantines or even being put to sleep.

We believe that most of these dogs can be saved with proper training.

Biting and aggression can be caused by a number of emotions that take control of your dog’s actions. These include:

  • Anxiety/Fear
  • Dominance
  • Lack of Respect
  • Too Much Energy
  • And Others

Our goal with biting and aggression training is to identify the root cause of the dog’s misbehavior, and to correct it at its root so that there is no danger of the issue coming up again. In order to do this best, we create a unique training program for your dog and your family, working closely with both so that each member understands the commands necessary to properly train the dog, and the dog understands how to receive them.

In this way, proper training and diligent care can protect your dog, your family and your guests so that you can really enjoy your dog again.

Matt Meitner OWNER & HEAD TRAINER

Matt’s story is similar to so many others: He adopted a shepherd-lab rescue as a family dog but soon realized she was going to be more than he could handle alone. Bella showed signs of separation anxiety and dog aggression. In January of 2012, he reached out to Jason Loomis with Sit Means Sit-Milwaukee for… Read More

I am a veterinarian who came to Matt and Sit Means Sit with a very sweet but very unruly rescue Pitbull puppy named Bosley. Admittedly, I was in over my head with training, but I wanted to learn and be very involved in the training process. Through a lot of time, hard work and patience, Matt has helped me develop Bosley into an incrediblely well behaved boy – I commonly get strangers asking who I worked with for training! Matt’s training has also helped strengthen the bond between myself and my loveable little pup, I am incredibly grateful to their team. I recommend Matt and Sit Means Sit to any of my friends and clients!

Matt is a really excellent trainer. He not only trains your dog, but he also trains you to be a better dog handler.

When we first adopted Willie, a pit bull mix with a choppy backstory, we were told that he was great with other dogs. We found out within the first couple days of having him that ‘great’ was not the case. Willie was extremely dog reactive – he’d fixate on other dogs and growl like there was no tomorrow. It got to the point where I was scared to walk him because of how he reacted to other dogs. I started to wonder why he was like this, if it was because of his time in the high kill shelter in Alabama, if it was because he was beaten by one of his fosters, or even if it was me and if I wasn’t the right owner for him.

I started to realize that I needed to stop fixating on why he was like that – I just needed to help him. It wasn’t fair to him to be cooped up because I was afraid to take him outside. I started looking at trainers and quickly got discouraged because many facilities wouldn’t work with aggressive dogs.

And then I found Matt. At our consultation, Willie went berserk when he saw Kane, but that didn’t stop Matt from working with us. We started our private lessons in July and began taking Willie to group lessons in November.

It’s February. I can sit Willie next to another dog without getting nervous. He can focus on me instead of fixating on other dogs. Matt very well may have saved Willie’s life. And not only that, but he gave me the confidence that I needed to work with my dog. For this, Matt, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
