About Our School

At the puppy school our primary goal is to enhance the human- animal bond and inter-species communication. We aim to teach our (human) clients ‘responsible pet ownership’ and how to effectively communicate with their puppies ensuring a behaviorally sound and happy pet and many years of great companionship between owner and dog. Under no circumstance do we use any form of punishment and strongly advise for the benefits of science based training methods.
