Build Skills, Overcome Struggles,
Make Sit Happen, and Have Fun Doing It!
No matter whether you own a pet dog, a sport dog, a difficult dog, a good ol'boy, or you’ve just welcomed a puppy into your life..... If you share your home with a dog, Make Sit Happen LLC is the dog training choice for you!
Every dog is an individual and has a particular set of skills which determine their behavior, day by day.
Your dog’s specific strengths and weaknesses combine to make their unique personality.
Underpinning all these strengths and weaknesses is a series of concepts which include (but are not limited to) calmness, optimism, impulse control, disengagement, proximity, and tolerance of frustration.
Just as each dog’s personality will be unique, so are the skills, or concepts, they need to grow.
With veterinary behaviorist created Concept Training, you can reshape your dog’s brain to develop the skills they might currently be lacking.
Recognizing what skills and concepts your dog needs to develop – and which concepts they perhaps need to rehearse a little less of – is vital if you are going help your dog be the very best version of themselves as you journey through life together.
What is Concept Training?
Concept training is a positive reinforcement and solution-focused approach to dog training.
It targets the WHY behind your dog's behavior, rather than just suppressing the symptoms.
This leads to truly remarkable behavior transformations that you don't see with traditional obedience classes or punishment based dog training methods.
It's more than just teaching your dog basic commands. It's setting your dog up to make the right choices whether you are telling them to or not!
With training games and exercises that are actually FUN, both you and your dog will look forward to training!
It doesn't feel like work so you won't give up out of boredom or frustration!
