At Sit Happens RVA, we know that life with your dog should be fun, happy and stress free. We help you achieve this by teaching your dog the skills they need to be a well-mannered family member. The Sit Happens Method was developed over the last decade by owner and Head Trainer Nicole DeVault. It is a fun way to teach your dog basic obedience commands such as sit, down, stay, come and loose leash walking in addition to more advanced obedience training such as off-leash control.
We also offer behavior modification programs for common behavioral issues such as:
Aggression
Jumping up on people
Excessive barking
Destructive chewing
Separation anxiety
Sit Happens RVA is based in Richmond, Virginia and serves the surrounding area. We are dedicated to providing the best possible training experience for our clients and their dogs. We specialize in on-leash obedience for dogs of any age, size, or breed. We also work with problem behaviors, house training, and separation anxiety.
We use only positive reinforcement methods to train your dog - no shock collars or choke chains. We use toys and treats to teach your dog how to focus on you and strengthen the bond between you. Our methods are humane and effective!
I want to provide dog training services in Richmond that are fun and effective. I want the humans to enjoy training and think of it as playtime with their dogs. I want the dogs to have fun too!
The majority of my clients are referred to me by other clients, which is a testament to our success and the relationships we build.
I believe in using positive reinforcement methods of dog training. Positive reinforcement means rewarding your dog for doing something you like. The reward can come in many forms: treats, toys, praise, petting, playing or anything else your dog loves!
It doesn't matter what you're trying to train your dog to do, there's always a way to reward them.
