About
Dogs are my passion
Dogs have been a part of my life since my childhood and the interest for dog training and dog behaviour has gradually got to the point when I decided to educate myself in this field and turn my passion into my job. I took the dog trainer examination at Hundens Hus in 2016 and soon after that I started studying to become a dog psychologist at the same school, which I succesfully finished in February 2018 with a diploma.
How I work
The most important to me is to build up a good relationship between a dog and its owner where a dog becomes motivated to follow the whole training process without feeling controlled or pushed into something.
To obtain the best training results I always work with the soft training methods and use a reward system. This means that a dog gets reward in case she/he performs a right/desired action. This method, also called positive reinforcement, causes that the right behaviour starts to occur more often in the future. Soft methods do work fantastic not only when it comes to the training, but contribute to a stronger relationship between a dog and his owner.
I DO NOT use any physical or mental punishment in my training as I believe that any forms of disciplinary actions lead to a damaged relationship.
Services
Customized to your needs
Is it just a particular command/action you have a problem with or do you want to go through a complete obedience program?
Less stress, more focus on work
The benefit of private training is that your dog can easily focus on excercises without being disturbed by other dogs. Private training can be perfomed either at Hundeffekt premises or at your home under my guidance.
Suitable for all kinds of dogs
This kind of training is suitable for all dogs: puppies, young dogs and adult dogs. We are going to work together in about an hour per training session and carry on with the training until we reach the goal.
Complete obedience program
A complete Obedience training package includes: walking on a leash, recall, contact, passivity, activation, games, sit, lay down, stay, stop.

Stress situations, started to behave strangely
Life with you four-legged friend can sometimes take an unexpected turn. Dogs are very sensitive creatures and react to stress situations differently, therefore it is necessary to understand why your dog has suddenly started to behave strangely. I can help you to find the trigger and make a training program according to your needs so you can succesfully deal with a problem.
The most common problems
The dog owners face to these most common problems: separation anxiety, gun-shyness, excessive barking, biting, aggression/fear of other animals or people, chasing after animals.
First visit and training plan
The first visit takes place at your home where I can see your dog in its usual enviroment without any further disturbances. This visit includes an interview, a short walk and some basic excercises for the start. Based on the information I gather from the interview, I will prepare a training plan sutiable for your dog.
Progress and revisits
Another visit usually comes up after 2-3 weeks. You start to work with your dog according to the plan and we will together follow up the progress.

Problems with my own dog and a desire to fix him raised my interest for dogs behavior, dog´s needs and correct training methods. Few years later, after finishing my education, I managed to help not only him but also other dogs whose owners contacted me with both minor and major problems. In case you need advice regarding your dog, don´t hesitate to contact me. I will help you to see the whole picture of the situation and recommend a suitable training.
