Are you a dog owner in Tuckahoe, Henrico, or the surrounding areas looking for effective solutions to aggression in your furry friend? At Sit Happens RVA, we understand that aggression can be a challenging issue for both dogs and their owners. That’s why we offer specialized dog training focused on addressing aggressive behavior, ensuring a happier and safer environment for everyone.
Our head dog trainer, Nicole, is passionate about helping dogs overcome behavioral challenges. After moving to Richmond from Florida, Nicole quickly fell in love with the local parks, particularly Forest Hill Park and Church Hill Dog Park, where she enjoys spending time with her two rescue dogs, Milli the beagle and Axel, the Boxer/Rhodesian Ridgeback/Pitbull mix. Her personal experience with rescue dogs gives her a unique perspective on the challenges many dog owners face.
With a diverse background that includes working as a front desk associate in a luxury resort and a pediatric dental assistant, Nicole brings a wealth of experience in working with people from all walks of life. Her journey into dog training began when she apprenticed with Dave Stellato, the founder of Sit Happens RVA. Through this mentorship, Nicole learned effective training techniques that emphasize understanding and communication between dogs and their owners.
