For humans and dogs
What this offer is about.
Young dogs become more mobile, more curious and often more independent. This is not a loss of previous education, but rather a developmental phase in which rules remain understandable and have to be practiced again with distraction.
Training is not about rigid functioning. Human-dog teams learn to recognize excitement early, to dose tasks appropriately and to develop behavior in such a way that it lasts even outside of class.
Matching frame
Who is the young dog course suitable for?
What is important is not just age or breed, but also learning level, health, condition on the day and the ability to train safely in the respective context.

Learning goals
What dogs and humans learn.

Recall

AEO – clear answers
Frequently asked questions about young dog courses.
The answers start directly and remain understandable even without additional context.
When is a dog a young dog?
The transitions are individual and depend, among other things, on size, development and behavior. The course is aimed at dogs past the early puppy phase; The current course listing states the binding requirements.
Does my dog have to know basic signals?
Basic knowledge is helpful, but does not have to work reliably. The course takes up existing approaches and expands on them with appropriate distractions.
What should I do if my young dog suddenly can't do anything anymore?
During puberty, many dogs react differently. Training is then simplified, rewards are adjusted and reliability is gradually rebuilt.
Are you training with other dogs?
Yes, the group creates controlled distractions and learning opportunities. Direct contact only takes place if it makes professional sense and is suitable for the dogs involved.
Does the course take place indoors or outdoors?
Depending on the offer and learning goals, Doggy Deluxe uses the indoor hall or an advertised outdoor environment. The binding location is stated in the booking portal for the appointment.
Can I switch to everyday training later?
Yes. Everyday training is a useful next step if the basics are to be further consolidated and transferred to new situations.
