I was skeptical about hiring a trainer because my dog is 5 years old and stuck in her ways. Sissy had behavior issues with other dogs and people. Getting help from Sit Happens was the best decision I’ve ever made regarding Sissy! Not only does she train your fur baby, but she trains you as well to ensure continued success when your sessions are over! We only had 4 sessions together and the difference is like night and day. I’m able to do things with my dog that I’ve never done before!

I am really impressed with how much my puppy learned and retained through the board and train program with Vikki and Sit Happens Dog Training!

Vikki with Sit Happens was absolutely amazing with my three favorite pups. Three German Shepherd puppies are a challenge to say the least. Vikki came in and got everyone on the same page, including me! She was so good with the dogs, even my most fearful, Sugar. She taught me how to teach them, which is what I loved the most about the training. I have used other trainers, but nothing seemed to work. Thank you so much, as my three are more enjoyable than ever!

Sit Happens did an amazing job with my 2! Thanks to her my fur babies are so well behaved and no accidents in the house! They are completely trained. My dogs love her. Thanks for everything, we couldn’t have done it without you!

Sit happens did a great job training my puppy! My main goal was to have him house trained. I just didn’t have time to be consistent with him. He came back ringing a bell to go potty and with some manners as an a bonus! I highly recommend!

Peanut, the 7 year old Chihuahua Mix, is currently Peanut, the 7 year old Chihuahua Mix, is currently enrolled in our private training program for behavior modification. His original owner passed away and now he is in a new environment with more activity such as children on scooters, bicycles in the neighborhood, and guests coming over. He is reactive in the neighborhood when seeing triggers. He is very nervous around children and responds aggressively. We are implementing muzzle conditioning, management, systematic desensitization, and counter-conditioning to help Peanut feel more at ease in his new environment. He is also enjoying learning his obedience cues. Though he is fearful, once he is comfortable with someone he is quite the friendly and social pup. We are excited to work with him and follow his progress. #sithappens #lafayettedogtrainer #trainingwithresults #chihuhuamix #rescuedogsofinstagram #reactivedig #reactivedogtraining #fearfuldogtraining #privatelessons #lafayettela #positivedogtraining #dogsofacadiana #behaviormodification #leashreactivity #certifiedbehaviorconsultant #dogbehaviortraining

Penny, the 7 month old Boykin Spaniel, is currentl Penny, the 7 month old Boykin Spaniel, is currently enrolled in private training lessons for behavior modification training.

We have implemented heavy management, muzzle conditioning, and a referral to her vet as well as a veterinary behaviorist. When working with Pica it is important to rule out any underlying medical conditions for the behavior, as well as reducing her stress and anxiety. She is making tremendous progress in training. She is enjoying learning her obedience cues, working on her impulse control, and the increase of physical exercise.

Beau, the 3 year old Australian Shepherd Mix, is c Beau, the 3 year old Australian Shepherd Mix, is currently enrolled in private training lessons for behavior modification. He's in training to combat his human aggression, dog reactivity, and begin preparing for a new human sibling. Beau struggles with fear aggression and is very weary of new guests. Prior to training he was very avoidant of guests except when he felt he had no other option than to display aggression to protect himself. He is beginning to learn that guests predict good things for him and he does not have to engage with them. He is also learning to relax in the presence of other dogs that are not in his immediate household. He is progressing beautifully with guests. His pet parents are expecting a baby in January. We have started baby prep by conditioning him to wear a muzzle for safety, getting him familiar with baby items, and creating scenarios that he may experience with a life like babydoll. He has shown no signs of showing aggression towards the babydoll, but we want ot be as proactive as possible and set him up for success. Awesome work, Beau! #sithappens #lafayettedogtrainer #trainingwithresults #humanaggression #muzzleconditioning #dogbabyprep #fearfuldogsofinstagram #behaviormodificationtraining #privatelessons #dogsofinstagram #doglovers #herdingdogmix #certifiedbehaviorconsultant
