Your bond is the greatest reward.

Relationship-based dog training, with food rewards kept to almost zero. We work in the field and in town from day one, because real life happens outside the fence.

The problems we teach you
to tackle

We don't fix the problem for you: we give you the tools to understand it and handle it together with your dog, every day.

Tap a problem to see how we tackle it together.

Food rewards kept to almost zero.

We use very few treats during our programmes. We don't want food to be the reason your dog behaves well: we want the reason to be their relationship with you.

If the reason is the biscuit…

  • Your dog watches your pocket, not you
  • When the food runs out, so does the attention
  • In town, a stronger distraction beats the treat
  • Behaviour depends on something external

If the reason is the relationship…

  • Your dog looks for your eyes and your voice
  • They cooperate even when your hands are empty
  • They stay calm because they trust you, anywhere
  • Behaviour comes from the bond, and it lasts

What we use instead of food

Relationship

The bond with the owner is the key to every positive attitude a dog shows.

Communication

Your dog learns to read you and you learn to read your dog: one look says more than a thousand words.

Shared play

Playing together strengthens cooperation and burns energy the right way.

Mental stimulation

Your dog understands situations and finds solutions, instead of performing to get paid.

From the very first meeting

Real life is
outside the fence.

We don't only train in the field. From day one we work both in the field and in town: pavements, crossings, shops, cafés, noise, bikes, people and other dogs. So that dog and owner get used to living in town every day, not only when they have to.

Field

We build the foundations of relationship and communication in a controlled setting.

Town

We take those foundations straight outside: streets, shops, cafés, people, traffic and other dogs.

Every day

We give you the tools to enjoy town life with your dog, not just during lessons.
