What our clients say
I learned too, not just Ermis
What I appreciated most was that I learned too. They didn't just train Ermis for me — they taught me how to train him and how to communicate with him every day. The difference in his behavior was immediate and huge.
Nose work gave him a purpose
Odysseas has an incredible nose, but he needed guidance to put it to use. The Scent Detection — Nose Work program gave him an outlet and a purpose, and gave me a completely new way to connect with him.
We got our walks back
Doukas had started pulling us constantly on walks and reacting badly to all sorts of triggers. Within a few weeks our relationship changed completely. Now we walk together and we enjoy our walks at the Old Harbor. Once the training is finished we'll have a completely different dog.
Two dogs, one enjoyable daily routine
Loki is the second dog we got, and the training approach with him was different. We learned how to all live together at home and how to handle 2 dogs on walks. Spending time with our dogs is now an enjoyable daily activity.
We built her trust with patience
Liza was very frightened when she came to our home. With patience and respect for her character, we slowly built up her trust. Today she is a better dog and we enjoy our walks around town.
They understood our needs first
We started with a conversation and an assessment, so we could get to know each other and so they could better understand me and my Jack Russell girl. What I liked from the start was that they weren't in a rush to suggest solutions — first they tried to understand our needs, since I had never had a small dog at home, let alone such a hyperactive one. In every session you could see their experience, and also their genuine interest in helping us.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before we start. Didn't find the answer you were looking for? Get in touch.
What age can training start from?
Training can start from a very young age — even from 8 weeks, through play and rewards. There's no such thing as "too late": we adapt the program to each dog's age and character.
Do I need to be present at the sessions?
Yes. We always work with the owner present and actively involved, so that the training carries over into your daily life and continues properly once the program ends.
How long does a training program last?
It depends on your goals and your dog's character. After a first meeting and an assessment of your dog, we propose a program with a set duration and number of sessions, based on what you choose.
Which areas do you cover?
We cover areas across the regions of Chania and Rethymno and, under certain conditions, all of Crete. Get in touch and we'll confirm availability in your area.
Do you use punishment-based methods?
No. Our approach is built on the principles of Balanced Dog Training. Our work isn't based on fear, but on setting clear boundaries and building an honest relationship of communication and trust between a dog and their owner.
What if my dog has behavior problems?
We always start with a conversation and an assessment. That's how we understand the problem behaviors, your dog's needs and character, and design targeted training built around them.
