A few of my doggie clients

NEW at Dannegger-Training: SATURDAY DOG COURSES!! Since my Sunday courses have been so well-received, especially by families and working partners, I have decided to start offering courses on Saturdays as well. Dog Courses at Dannegger-Training are created on an individual needs basis. That means that if you really want to start a beginner dog agility (or obedience or mixed-sport) course from say, 12-1pm on a Saturday, and that time-slot is free, I will create the course for you at the group price of CHF 50/hour opr CHF 480 for a 10-lesson block paid in advance. Then I will look for other clients with compatible dogs and compatible goals. This means that the person starting the course will benefit from some 1-1 lessons in the beginning, on the understanding that up to 3 more dogs can be added to the course over time. If a person wants to have one-to-one coaching for themselves, that is also possible (CHF 70/hour or CHF 650 for a 10 lesson block paid in advance). The course content and scheduling options for such courses are completely flexible. Is building a better relationship with your dog one of your New Year's resolutions? Contact me to schedule a free meeting with your dog at the school to discuss your needs and goals.

Akeyo on FitBone... Body Awareness Exercise

This is Carmen with "Akeyo" warming up with the FitPaws FitBone, working on Body Awareness and Coordination training before moving on to some agility work (on that day) -- other days he does Nosework or Flyball or Obedience or a bit of each in their "Brain & Body" Course. Carmen and Akeyo were my first Trainer-Dog Team when Dannegger-Training opened in February 2016... They have since added a female Ridgeback to their home and to our class -- "Taira" who keeps us all on our toes!! :-)

Dyra on FitPaws peanut

Dyra on the FitPaws Peanut. This dog is just amazing and so much fun!! Pure energy...I am quite certain that she has some spider-monkey DNA in there somewhere!! (FYI this was her first time on the FitPaws peanut. Natascha and I were working in the school, and Dyra got bored and just jumped on it. I just had to grab the camera to get some of this on film. I swear if she could, she'd sprout wings and fly!!

Twins on Fitpaws

The "twins": Annie the Golden Doodle and Lily trying out the new Fitpaws Bones and Discs. (Proprioception and coordination / balance training.) You can see what a workout it is for Lily -- the bone is filled to the max with air, so it is harder to balance on... I would put less air in for a beginner.

Annie the Goldendoodle and Lily the Coton: almost twins.... Every week I wonder if I could get a Goldendoodle puppy like Annie and tell my husband "it's a Coton puppy"... (just one with an abnormal growth disorder ... LOL) ;-)

Today is Thanksgiving Day and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of my clients and students (past and present) who have helped to make my first 9 months in business such a wonderful experience and a growing success!! :-) ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Ich möchte heute am Thanksgiving Day alle meine Klienten und Schüler der letzten 9 Monate bedanken für Eur Vertrauen und Unterstützung. :-)
