Methods

Radimo sa psima primjenom pozitivnih metoda rada, oblikovanjem ponašanja psa nagrađivanjem/potvrđivanjem ispravnog izbora (ponašanja) pasa i nastojimo kroz aktivne i zabavne vježbe učenje učiniti interaktivnim i zanimljivim. Orgaiziramo individualni rad, rad u paru i tečajeve (za štence i za mlade pse). Tečajevi se održavaju kroz 10 sati, u što je uključeno i teorijsko predavaje, te igračka za psa i diploma o završenom tečaju. Tečaj za štence je prilagođen dobi pasa, i više se radi na socijalizaciji. Kod mladih pasa više se prilagođavamo svakom pojedinom psu kroz strukturu programa tečaja i ispravljamo eventualne pogreške. Individualni rad namijenjen je vlasnicima koji imaju pse sa već razvijenim problemima u ponašanju ILI se nikako ne mogu prilagoditi terminima tečaja. Pristup je individualan, na prvom satu se odradi uvodni razgovor na kojem se definiraju očekivanja i ciljevi.
