Keep Your Pup Happy and Safe This Halloween with Sit Happpens Nashville’s Nipping and Chewing Training

Posted by Sit Happens Dog Training on Oct 25 2024

 

Halloween is just around the corner, and while it's a time of fun costumes, spooky decorations, and sweet treats for humans, it can also be a challenging season for our furry friends. Increased stress, excitement, and the hustle and bustle of trick-or-treating can lead to unwanted behaviors like nipping and chewing. At Sit Happpens Nashville, we understand the unique challenges that come with Halloween and are here to help you and your dog enjoy a safe and joyous holiday together.

Why Halloween Can Be Tough on Dogs

The vibrant lights, loud noises, and influx of strangers can make Halloween overwhelming for dogs. These stressors can trigger behaviors such as nipping, chewing, barking, and even anxiety. Without proper training and support, what should be a fun time can turn into a stressful experience for both you and your pet.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Dave is amazing!! He changed my dog and I’s lives! He is reliable and hard working. His work not only trains the dog but more especially the owner on how to handle their dog. I would give 6 stars if possible! Thank you Dave!

Dave helped us immensely with our five-year-old Yorkie mix, Max. Max's behavior at the door, getting the leash on, getting the muzzle on for vet visits -- all that and more had gotten incredibly difficult. We saw *significant* improvements -- in just a couple of weeks -- with minor changes to our behavior and patterns. Dave is both personable and results-oriented, while also demonstrating his love for dogs, including ours. We recommend Dave!

We are so glad we met Dave! We adopted a puppy 4 weeks ago, and he has been a HUGE support for us integrating Merlin into our family. He has taught us how to get started training early, and he has responded very fast to any questions we have outside of our sessions. We can't wait to continue working with our new addition to get him trained off-leash like Dave's dog. We can't recommend him enough!

I LOVE Dave! I've known him 5 years and I still go back to him with questions, he is committed, responsive and just gets it. He has been my Go To trainer for my 5 year old Weimaraner Grace Olivia from the moment I brought her home - from the beginning he showed so much care and concern for my girl, and she is AMAZING because of his efforts to train me! I am getting a new puppy soon and you better believe he/she will be a Sit Happens graduate as well!
