GOOD TO KNOW
-
Contrary to scientific findings, there are some dog training schools that advertise themselves as working without “treats” and therefore do not use primary reinforcers, i.e., food rewards. They may use training methods instead that can be potentially harmful to dogs, such as pulling on the leash, yelling, or other more severe measures.
-
At HUNDHOCH2, we firmly believe that every training session should be a fair and respectful experience for both humans and their dogs! This is why we use marker words and ‘rewards’ for desired behavior.
-
To build a mutual trust and a respectful relationship.
OUR MOTTO
BETTER.
TRAIN.
DOGS.
POSITIVELY.

COURSES AND SERVICES
Viviane (with Ona)
My dog and I already knew the basics of dog training, but we still learned a lot from Kirsten and received effective advice. She's a true professional, and there aren't many of those around! The lessons were tailored to our needs. She addresses both the dog and the owner, and even let grandmothers and children participate. Plus, it was a lot of fun. Highly recommended!
CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Google Maps)
Ben (with Betty)
We attended a training course with our
3-year-old female dog in private lessons.
Kirsten is a fantastic dog (and people) trainer. Our rescue dog is very reserved with strangers, but Kirsten took to her immediately.
We learned a tremendous amount, and Kirstens' course materials are fantastic. The flashcards allow you to review what you've learned at a later time, so you don't forget half of it during the lesson.
Definitely recommended.
Matthias (with Alegria)
Kirsten's course was fantastic. She tailors the content precisely to the needs of her (four-legged) clients and presents everything very calmly, clearly, and in an animal-friendly manner. Highly recommended!
