INDIVIDUAL
DOGTRAINING
The first few weeks in a new home are extremely important for your pup. This is the phase where it learns how the world works and what behaviour will come natural to it later on, as an adult dog. You can train dogs at any age, but the sooner you start, the better! You can start as early as 2 months with fun and educational exercises, laying the foundation for a happy, obedient, and confident dog.
"The very best
for you
& your dog"
A happy dog starts with you
Imagine: a dog that walks confidently beside you, that understands you, and that is eager to listen to you. No fear, no insecurity, but a true connection based on trust and mutual respect. That is exactly what Force Free training facilitates.
Many dogs show undesired behaviour; not because they are ‘stubborn’ or ‘dominant’, but because they simply do not understand what we expect of them. Punishment, harsh corrections, or even ignoring undesired behaviour can only make things worse, leading to stress, anxiety or even aggression. When all the while, you only had the best intentions and just wanted a happy, well-behaved dog.
A different approach
Force Free training teaches you to communicate with your dog in a pleasant and friendly way. No force, no punishment, but working together with clear markings followed by rewards – for example using a clicker. This way, not only do you teach your dog what it is you are asking, but you also make it feel safe, relaxed and truly understood. You help your dog in a way that is clear and pleasant for both of you, without any frustration or misunderstandings.
- No unnecessary stress, but a dog that wants to work with you
- No leash tugging, but relaxed walks
- No insecure barking
What will your dog learn?
We train important basic skills that make everyday life easier and more pleasant:
- Coming when you call
- Walking beside you on a loose leash
- Sitting, lying down, and staying when you say so
- Staying calmly in its place
- Dropping objects on your request
Behavioural problems? We tackle those together
Many behavioural problems are the result of miscommunication. Our training programme will teach you to recognise and understand your dog’s signals. We start out by making an analysis of its behaviour and drawing up a tailored plan, and then go to work one step at a time.
- A dog that trusts you, because it understands what you mean
- No battle, but a partnership
- A bond for life
