Social Walk April

The guided learning walk for relaxed togetherness

Relaxed togetherness: social walks for you and yours Dog

Do you have a dog that reacts uncertainly or excitedly when meeting other dogs? Do you sometimes feel helpless when your four-legged friend pulls on the leash or barks? Then our social walks are just right for you!​

What is a social walk?

A social walk is a guided learning walk in a small group of human-dog teams. We go for walks together at a sufficient distance, with the dogs usually staying on a leash. Direct contact between dogs is not the main goal; Rather, the focus is on calm and controlled interaction.

Your dog learns:

• Calmness in dog encounters:Relaxed acceptance of other dogs nearby, stress-free encounters with strangers and perhaps even making new dog friendships.
• Environmental exploration:Being calm despite the presence of other dogs to get involved in the environment and sniff in a relaxed manner.​
• Communication: Reading the body language of other dogs and reacting appropriately to maintaining the individual distance of other dogs.​

You as the owner benefit from:

• Better understanding: Recognizing your dog's signals and responding correctly interpret.​
• Sovereignty:Becoming more confident in dealing with dog encounters - together you can master the challenge​
• Relaxation:Being more relaxed on walks and enjoying the time together more.​

Why are social walks so effective?

In our often hectic everyday lives, there is often no time for calm and controlled dog encounters. Social walks provide the framework in which your dog can learn to feel comfortable in the presence of other dogs at his own pace. By exploring the environment together and doing playful exercises, the focus is not exclusively on the other dogs, which contributes to a relaxed atmosphere.
