Dog Training Courses in Lausanne
For a harmonious relationship with your dog, built on respect, mutual understanding, trust and consistency
My Approach to Dog Training
As a certified dog training instructor (MEC, Profile 1), recognized by the OSAV and approved by the DGAV, I design a personalized training program with you, based on modern, positive and effective training methods.
« Training should not be considered a luxury; it is a key component to good animal care. »
— Ken Ramirez
Every dog, every person, every family and every living environment is unique.
My goal is to understand your dog, your expectations and your lifestyle in order to develop tailored solutions, in a spirit of teamwork.
Training and welfare
As a Fear Free certified animal trainer, I make your companion’s well-being a priority in every aspect of my work.
A solid foundation for harmonious living and your dog’s well-being
So that you and your dog can feel confident in all situations and enjoy a smoother and more pleasant daily life, I also include exercises from the National Dog Ownership Certificate (BPC).
The BPC replaces the former mandatory competency certificate (AC), which was removed in 2017. It is still recognized in Switzerland and is now offered voluntarily by several dog clubs.
