Give your puppy a great foundation and set them up for success with our in-home puppy and owner coaching service.
Most training approaches focus on tricks or rewards, which rarely translate to real-life control. Our philosophy centres on your relationship and energy: dogs respond to calm, consistent guidance from a confident, loving human influence.
George Lygidakis has been training and rehabilitating dogs for over 35 years. A former police dog handler and trainer, George went on to specialise in dog behaviour, psychology, and the human–dog relationship.
Alarmed by the rise of anxious, overstimulated, and misunderstood dogs — and the misinformation surrounding dog training — George developed a system that is simple, natural, holistic, and effective.
His core realisation was this:
We are the source of our dog’s behaviour.
This insight forms the foundation of Sit Drop Stay’s unique training system — one that delivers consistent, lasting results without gimmicks, force, or dependency on food rewards.
If you’re ready to move beyond frustration, confusion, and short-term fixes — and start building a calm, cooperative relationship with your dog — we’re here to help.

“We are considered by many to be leaders in the field of dog training but on several occasions with both work and home dogs I have used George’s services because his general knowledge of animal behaviour far outstrips ours.”

“Sitdropstay has changed our lives. It was amazing to watch within the space of minutes our usually boisterous, unruly dogs doing anything George told them. After the 2 hour consult we had dogs who wanted to listen to us. It was truly an enlightening experience.”
