How can we help you?

Thank you for your interest in training your dog with OFFSIDE DOGS! As part of our methodology, we follow the steps detailed below. Is your dog a super-dog and you only wish to teach him tricks? We can also do that! These apply for behavior modifications as well as teaching tricks. Contact us, we’re happy to help!

01

First things first. Evaluating the dog and context.

A good diagnose will ensure a good therapy. The main aim of the first session as dog trainers is to observe and evaluate. The best way to do this is to visit your home and neighborhood, so as to understand the context.

Home and Walk. At home, we observe the dog, his behaviours, his motivations. His interaction with the environment, with his owners, and then we go for a regular short walk. It is very important the everyone acts naturally and you don’t modify anything of your routine, we don’t want to pre-condition the dog, we just need to see how he acts.
Analysis, the What’s and the Why’s. After observing we can picture the root of the issue and what triggers that situation/problem. For example these issues are usually… separation anxiety, barking and chasing bikes, destroying toys and clothes / furniture, not coming when we call him, etc.
Tasks and homework. Once evaluated, we will guide you on what to do until we meet again, indicating some tasks you can easily do to start improving his behavior from the very first session.

Usually our visit is once a week, however at the beginning, or with special cases we can meet twice a week.

We are not here to judge! We are just here to help, so the more honest and natural you are with your dog, the better results we will obtain from our training sessions. And hopefully (however sadly to us), soon you won’t need us anymore!🐾

02

Following sessions

After the evaluation the dog trainer will work with the dog 1 hour per week, these sessions could be at home or outside home. We train the dog, but we also teach the owner. We will guide you how to transmit everything to the dog, communication is key! Sessions are always fun.

03

Guidelines

After every session we provide a list of exercises for you to practice with your dog. This will hep him remember what we taught and it will make you more confident as a guide. Plus, the exercises are always a way of deepen your bond with them!

04

Doubts

Although we leave you homework and wish you become a ver independent dog-guide, you can always ask questions via WhatsApp. You can even send videos or photographs to illustrate the issue!

05

End of training.

We adore Falkor, but we don’t want this to become a never-ending story. The ending of the therapy or training depends on what we wanted to train, the character of the dog and other variables. We determine the objectives, but it is the dog who marks the outcome!
