Look, it’s September in Nashville. The kids are back in school. The buses are rolling. The parents are finally breathing again—coffee in hand, finally a moment of peace.
But guess who didn’t go back to school?
Your dog.
That little furry dropout is still jumping on guests, pulling on the leash, barking at shadows, and treating your living room like it’s a racetrack. Everyone else is leveling up for fall and your dog is out here still living in Hot Dog Summer™.
Well, I got news for you: it’s time for them to get their education too. Welcome to Sit Happens Nashville, where we turn wild behavior into well-trained greatness, one “SIT” at a time.
Here’s what usually happens.
You bring your dog home. You tell yourself, “I got this. I watched like, three YouTube videos. We’re bonding. He’ll learn eventually.”
And six months later, you’ve got a 70-pound land shark yanking your shoulder out of place every time a squirrel so much as breathes. You're yelling commands, and your dog is just looking at you like, “That’s cute. Anyway…”
This isn’t just a dog problem—it’s a leadership problem. And don’t get me wrong, we love dogs. We’re obsessed. But these dogs need boundaries, structure, and someone to say, “Hey, maybe don’t body slam Grandma.”
Fall is the perfect time to get your dog into training. Why? Because the chaos of summer is over.
No more cookouts every weekend.
No more road trips where your dog howls for four hours straight.
No more blaming the heat for why you “couldn’t focus on training.”
It’s quieter. Your schedule is more predictable. Your dog is probably bored and ready to learn. And let’s be real—you’re tired of apologizing at the dog park every five minutes.
“Sorry, he just gets excited.”
“Oh, he’s friendly! Just kinda push him off…”
No. Nope. That ends here. It’s time for obedience training.
Now, some of you are thinking, “Okay, cool… but what does this actually look like?”
I’ll tell you. At Sit Happens Nashville, we don’t mess around. We offer private, one-on-one dog training tailored to YOUR dog, in YOUR space, for YOUR real-life issues.
Here’s what obedience training solves:
🐾 Jumping up – No more flying paws to the face. We fix that.
🐾 Leash pulling – We teach your dog to walk beside you, not drag you through Shelby Park.
🐾 Running off – Your dog will come when called. Yes, even when there’s a squirrel.
🐾 Soiling the house – If your carpet’s seen things... we can fix that, too.
🐾 Nipping, chewing, being a menace – We break the chaos cycle.
🐾 Barking like they’re announcing the apocalypse – Yep. Handled.
You want your dog to have off-leash control, real focus, and the ability to act like a civilized being no matter what distractions are happening? Cool. We do that.
Let’s stop pretending that watching three TikToks and buying a treat pouch on Amazon is the same as professional training.
Your dog isn’t dumb. If anything, they’re too smart. They figured you out already. They know you’ll fold when they hit you with the puppy eyes or throw a tantrum. You're out here negotiating with a creature that licks its own butt and still wins every time.
Our training doesn’t rely on gimmicks. We don’t “hope for the best.” We teach you how to:
✔️ Lead your dog with confidence
✔️ Set real, consistent rules
✔️ Communicate in a way they actually understand
✔️ Get results without yelling, bribing, or losing your mind
We live here. We train here. We know Nashville distractions better than anyone. The food trucks, the live music, the tourists who “just wanna pet him real quick.”
Your dog needs to behave in the real world—not just in your living room when there’s nothing going on. Our sessions are done in real-life settings, not some sanitized little training bubble. Because let’s face it—your dog never acts up when it’s convenient.
Whether it’s Broadway crowds, your apartment complex’s lobby, or your neighbor’s cat, we train your dog to keep their cool through it all.
Here’s what we offer at Sit Happens Nashville:
🧠 Obedience Training – The foundation of all good behavior. No fluff, just real rules.
🦴 Behavioral Training – For dogs with deeper issues like aggression, anxiety, or destructive behavior.
🐕 Leash Training – Because you deserve a walk, not a tug-of-war tournament.
🚽 House Training – Tired of mystery puddles? So are we.
🎓 Puppy Training – Start them early. Save yourself years of chaos.
👨🏫 Advanced Training – For the overachievers and working dogs who want to level up.
🐾 Socialization Training – So your dog doesn’t treat every human like a WWE opponent.
You know the one.
The person at the park yelling, “COME BACK! DROP IT! NO, STOP—”
Meanwhile, their dog is halfway to Memphis, happily ignoring every word.
You’re better than that.
Your dog is better than that.
They just need a little education—and we’re the teachers.

You already got your kid a backpack, a lunchbox, and a new pair of sneakers.
Now it’s time to get your dog back on track.
Let’s give them the kind of back-to-school glow-up that doesn’t involve chewed furniture or public shame.
Here’s the reality: If you don’t train your dog, your dog’s gonna train YOU.
They’re already doing it, aren’t they?
Dictating when you walk, where you walk, and whether you can invite guests over without chaos.
Let’s flip that script.
Let’s bring order to the madness.
Let’s turn your dog into the kind of pup that makes people go, “Dang, who trained them?”
You did. With us.

You bring the snacks.
