We deal with puppy training, essential manner coaching as well as different behavior problems. Based on the concept of Pooch's owner and the main dog trainer, Niels SEKI, we focus on exercise, discipline and socialization.

Dogs are social animals. They need to learn how to behave in their pack at an early stage of life. That is why, puppy training early on helps your dog grow into a well-mannered partner.

At Pooch Communications, there are so many different dogs come and go every day in our dog hotel, dog daycare, dog camp and dog glooming salon! It means plenty of opportunities to meet different dogs, play with other dogs and learn important socialization techniques that last a lifetime.

While puppy training easier build well-balanced character and behavior, it is not too late to start training at a later stage of life. We have engaged in training of many adult dogs that were not properly socialized as a puppy but learned how to get along after 3 weeks training camp with us.

As for various behavior problems, many of them often caused by owner and dog relationship or stresses due to insufficient exercise or inappropriate living environment. We, together with dog owners, look into the current situation and figure out how to solve the problem.

All the participants have a free counseling session before joining our dog training camp. Our training program usually complete in 3 weeks. During this period, all dogs stay at Pooch following disciplined day schedule and encounter many other dogs and people. Through this completely different experience as well as strict but loving guidance of our dog trainers, many dogs achieve a healthy balance as a social animal.

Whatever the problem you have, whatever the age of your dog, please do not hesitate to consult with us. We use all our experience and expertise to tackle your problem together!

Life styleHow to spend

During the supervised stay your pooch will not be locked into a crate but will play with other dogs in the dog room or dog garden, will hold a midday nap and will pass time with games etc.

Depending on the season it will also be able to play in our pool.

You can be at ease that those dogs that don't like other dogs will be watched closely by the trainer and are not forced to play unnecessarily.

These dog problems can be solved

For example

Customers voice
  • Pulling on the leash

    A walk with your dog pulling you back and forth is not enjoyable at all.

    It is evidence of the pooch walking in front of its owner misunderstanding itself as the leader.

    To enable dog and owner to pass an enjoyable time together, it is necessary to try and break the habit of pulling on the leash.

  • Pointless barking

    Barking is an absolutely natural thing for a dog to do.
    Transposed into the world of humans it is the equivalent of chatting. But if a dog is barking excessively without anybody else being present, we can assume that we are facing a problem.

    Barking may be caused by protective caution or be aimed at claiming a territory, or it can be aggressive barking, or even be the barking characteristic for a certain breed of dog.

    Therefore it is necessary to determine the trigger (occasion) of the barking first, and to take corrective action and make changes to the dog's environment later.

  • Aggressive behavior

    The term aggressive behavior is used for pooches that have a habit of growling, biting and barking aggressively.

    Aggressive behavior can roughly be divided into two kinds:
    One is the pattern where aggression is the result of fright. The other pattern sees the dog being aggressive because it feels superior.

    Which pattern is at the root of the individual problem does not depend on the size of the pooch, and it always is a problem to be taken seriously.

    Punishing the dog by hitting will only cause a steady increase of the problem. Due to the ever-present the danger of injury not only to the owner but to bystanders, it is absolutely necessary to correct the habit.

  • Discipline of the dog

    Discipline is what we call the conduct that has to be taught to a pooch, which allows dogs and humans to live together harmoniously in human society.

    By mastering the fundamental actions such as "sit", "lie down", "stay" and "come", the dog will form a more secure and enjoyable bond with its owner.

    Dogs, just like humans, have different personalities and characters, and they can be in a good or in a bad mood.

    There are dogs that just need time to develop discipline, and there are days when nothing will go right.

    Because that is so, it is especially important to select the training methods appropriate for each individual pooch.

    And you have to keep in mind that training is not "finished" if it works once; training continues over the whole lifetime.
