DOG TRAINING
At Canis Explorans, we offer dog training in English and German (native level).
The focus lies on fair, clear communication and modern, science-based training methods.
We work closely with both dogs and their owners to develop practical, sustainable solutions for everyday life.
About Me
Dogs have always been an important part of my life, and even as a child I had the chance to get to know many different breeds. Big or small, for the past 15 years I’ve had dogs of my own — always more than one — gaining extensive hands-on experience in living and working with them (with a special soft spot for Molossers).
From the very beginning, thoughtful training and helping my dogs feel confident and secure in their environment have been a top priority for me. I was fortunate to train at a highly competent dog school that worked with great knowledge, professionalism, and sensitivity. Inspired by this experience, I decided to pursue my own qualification as a dog trainer and continue my education toward becoming a canine behavior therapist and psychologist.
