Socialisation & Training Walks
Social Walk
– calm walks in small groups
(60 min) – CHF 30
During a Social Walk, several dogs walk together on leash in a calm group setting. We focus on keeping distance, relaxed leash handling, and peaceful encounters.
✔ suitable for insecure dogs
✔ small groups
✔ guided by a professional dog trainer
A Social Walk is not a training class in the traditional sense, but a shared experience for humans and dogs. Instead of simply taking the dog out for a walk, we take time to move together calmly and pay attention to the needs of both humans and dogs.
Requirement: Dogs should be comfortable walking on leash and able to interact calmly with other dogs. This can be developed in the group course Leash Heroes – calm, confident walking (5 lessons).
Next dates:
Tuesday, 19:00 (Bottmingen): Apr 7, Apr 14, Apr 21
Wednesday, 09:00 (Basel Area): Apr 8, Apr 15, Apr 22
Sunday, 11:00 (Therwil): May 3rd
New human–dog teams are always welcome.
Group Classes
for everyday life
(3–6 human-dog teams, 5 × 60 minutes) CHF 200
For all dogs – from young pedigree dogs to rescue dogs.
Many human–dog teams join because their dog is still learning how to feel comfortable in everyday situations or around other dogs. In small groups, we create a calm and structured environment for this.
These weekly classes focus on real-life situations, building the human–dog bond, and needs-based learning. Clear communication, mutual understanding, and practical exercises are at the center of the training. Some group classes can also help prepare for the 10 NHB lessons (National Dog Owner's Certification for Basel).
Small groups. Clear structure.
Noticeable progress from the very first week.
Additional group classes (upon interest):
-
Canine Body Language
-
Anxious Dogs
-
Positive Handling for Grooming, First Aid & Veterinary Visits
English-speaking teams are always welcome – training is available in both English and German.
