› The greatest gift for a dog is to be understood by us humans ‹

In the beginning there was the familiar.
At our home there were dogs even before the four of us sisters were born. My parents, passionate hunters, bred German Bracke. So it was natural for all of us to always have dogs around us. Even today everyone in our family has a dog by their side.
My dream has always been to work with animals and to learn.
I had wonderful teachers. Two-legged and four-legged. Today I have the privilege of bringing people closer to the nature of dogs. For understanding, a peaceful coexistence and for more quality of life on both sides.
I love my work with people and their dogs and helping them achieve their shared goals.
A good dog trainer loves people as much as dogs!
​When we humans are doing well, we can also be good to our dogs.
Dogs are sensitive beings, everyone who lives with one knows that. You especially notice on days when we are not feeling well that our dog reacts to it or perhaps doesn't react at all.
As with dogs, we humans can be the best version of ourselves, when we feel comfortable, when we are accepted and when we can laugh at ourselves.
​Why shouldn't dog training promote exactly that?!
That is why I created the learning concept Best Dog.
​Every dog owner should learn with and through their dog and have fun doing so.
​For over 25 years I have worked with people and their dogs and there has not been a day when I haven't learned something new.
I look forward to every person and to all the dog personalities I have yet to meet and experience.
