Frequently asked questions






















8. Why are training tools that you use ?

We use a wide range of training tools, depending on the dog's needs and behaviors, but more importantly, the one that will be most adapted to the owners and its ease of use. We use: slip leashes and collars (rope, martingale and prong).
They are the best tools for connection, communication and creating a harmonious relationship that eliminates physical stress for the dog and the owner. Most tools tend to mask or worsen behaviour (harness, flexible leash, nominal collar or choke chain), while the collars and leashes we use allow us to avoid these inconveniences.
It allows us break through and effortlessly communicate, creating a vastly different state of mind, also to communicate easily, unambiguously and without tension, with the dog as well as to modify the state of mind of a very reactive dog. These tools are unfortunately little known in Belgium and are often misused, but when used correctly, they have been proven to be the least painful or physically hurtful, the most humane, the most efficient. At the opposit, the other of the allegedly "safest" tools available on the market, are the one which only intensify the reactivity/aggressiveness and fear of the dog.


9. How do you train with an E-Collar?



However, our philosophy will remain that "leadership and dog respect and trust" is acquired through connection/relationship and not through the tool! We will always prefer to depend as little as possible on a tool that takes away your power. Moreover the correct use of an E-colar, with respect and integrity of the dog requires much more time, patience and therefore a longer training program. Therefore, if we do not have this guarantee, we will not offer or sell this type of training.
