Sit Happens Jacksonville being named a finalist in the 2026 Best of Bold City Community’s Choice Awards is a recognition we are honored to share. The awards, presented by The Florida Times-Union as part of its annual Community’s Choice program, celebrate the local businesses that Northeast Florida residents value most, and being named a finalist means our community took the time to nominate and vote for us among a competitive field of dog trainers.

What Being a Finalist Means to Our Team
Being named a finalist in a community-voted award is not something that comes from advertising or self-promotion, since the nominations and votes come directly from Jacksonville residents. Every vote represents a family who trusted us with their dog, whether that meant working through separation anxiety, building reliable off-leash skills, or helping a new puppy learn the basics. Being recognized among the Best of Bold City finalists tells us that the personalized, in-home approach we have built our business around is genuinely resonating with dog owners across Jacksonville and the First Coast.
Why Community Recognition Matters
Awards like Best of Bold City exist to highlight the businesses that residents trust and recommend to their friends and neighbors. Being named a finalist means Jacksonville families see us as one of the dog trainers worth mentioning when someone asks for a recommendation, and that kind of grassroots trust means more to us than almost any other form of recognition.
Thank You to the Jacksonville Community
We want to thank every client who nominated us, voted for us, and shared their experience with friends and family throughout this process. This recognition would not have been possible without the Jacksonville community’s continued trust, and we remain committed to earning that trust with every dog and family we work with.
