Welcome to Sit Happens Roseville, your go-to destination for one-on-one in-home dog training in Lincoln, CA, and the surrounding Placer County area! As a passionate dog trainer with 25 years of corporate experience, I've dedicated my life to helping dogs and their owners build strong, loving relationships. Whether you're a first-time dog owner or looking to refine your pup’s skills, I’m here to help you navigate the potty training journey with ease and confidence.
Potty training is often one of the first challenges new dog owners face, and for good reason. A well-trained dog is not only more pleasant to have around the house, but it also fosters a sense of accomplishment and pride in both the dog and their owner. At Sit Happens Roseville, we believe that potty training is about more than just teaching your dog where to go; it’s about establishing trust, communication, and a deep understanding between you and your furry friend.
In-home training offers a unique advantage over traditional classroom settings. Each dog has its own personality, quirks, and learning style, and I tailor my training methods to fit your dog’s specific needs. Here’s why our approach works:
Establish a Routine: Dogs thrive on consistency. Set regular feeding and bathroom schedules to help your dog understand when and where they should go.
Use Positive Reinforcement: Reward your dog with treats, praise, or playtime every time they successfully go outside. This encourages them to repeat the behavior.
Keep an Eye on Signals: Learn to recognize signs that your dog needs to go out, such as sniffing, circling, or whining. Respond quickly to these cues to prevent accidents.
Be Patient: Potty training is a process that takes time. Accidents will happen, and it's important to remain calm and avoid punishment. Instead, redirect your dog to the appropriate place and encourage them to go.
Consistent Commands: Use the same words or phrases each time you take your dog out to help them associate the command with the action.
I trained under David Stellato, a highly respected dog trainer and behaviorist, who taught me the importance of fostering genuine relationships between dogs and their humans. With my extensive background in corporate settings, I value integrity, respect, empathy, loyalty, and trust—principles that mirror the bond we share with our canine companions.
Having adopted many dogs from shelters, I’ve encountered and overcome a variety of behavioral challenges. Each experience has enriched my understanding of dog training, allowing me to offer personalized guidance to pet owners in Lincoln, CA, and the greater Sacramento area. My mission is to help you and your dog achieve the best relationship possible, no matter what challenges you face.
If you’re ready to embark on the potty training journey or need assistance with any other behavioral issues, don’t hesitate to reach out! At Sit Happens Roseville, I’m dedicated to helping you and your dog thrive together.
