Playful, effective, fun and fair

We believe training should be fun for both human and dog. Whether we’re working with puppies or extreme behavioural cases, our goal is to be highly effective, but also have fun and be fair to your dog.

OUR TRAINING APPROACH

We use a balanced, hands-on approach tailored to each dog.

This includes:

Play-based training to build engagement and drive
Food-based rewards where appropriate
Clear structure and communication
Professional use of modern tools, including electronic collars when needed

Everything we do is designed to create clarity, not confusion. We focus heavily on biological fulfilment, authority and autonomy in our training.

LIMA

Our training methods are driven by the LIMA principle (Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive).

We work with positive reinforcement whenever possible, but if that fails, we don’t limit ourselves in the use of training tools and methodology.

PLAY

We believe play is one of the most engaging and valuable training methods that exist. 

Play based training is our primary approach, to alleviate drive, build impulse control and to make training as fun and engaging as possible.

RESULT DRIVEN

If we didn’t get results, we wouldn’t be very good at our job. We help you make progress fast. 

Getting results isn’t about just making a dog “compliant.” It is about communicating clearly and helping your dog enjoy the training.

The Importance of Play!

Social play is such an important part of working with high drive dogs, but even play requires rules and control. See the change for yourself!
