Questions and answers

Initial consultation

  • One point that is very important to me is that you have a similar basic attitude to me, have a goal and want to learn something. In the initial consultation, we find out whether a collaboration makes sense for both sides and is goal-oriented.

  • We find out what your current issues are. You find out everything about the training and whether and how we can help you. We look at which offer is right for you and whether a collaboration makes sense for both sides.

  • The initial consultation always takes place with an experienced and competent employee of Marc Welti Hundetraining. She can answer all your questions and will also be there for you in the future.

  • Marc clearly focuses on his clients in order to help them progress in everything that concerns their dogs and to provide them with the best possible support. It would not be feasible in terms of time for him to conduct initial consultations in addition to coaching and training the dogs.

  • We always take a whole hour for you. Normally, however, meetings last between 25 and 45 minutes on average.

Coaching / Training

  • In my course, you as the dog owner are trained first and foremost. Accordingly, the age of the dog is irrelevant for the start of the training.

    I always have clients who book the coaching before they even have the dog so that they are equipped with the necessary basic knowledge right from the start.

  • The training can be successfully carried out with all possible breeds. The character of the dog is more relevant than the breed itself.

  • Yes, definitely. An older dog may not become a police dog. But suitability for everyday use can be learned at any age.

  • Yes, you can start training on the very first day. This lays the foundations for a great and relaxed life together as early as possible.

  • Definitely. I work with clients from all over Switzerland. The training is designed in such a way that you can achieve your goals without having to visit me in Zurich often.

    If the journey is still too far for you, I recommend online-only coaching.

  • I do not offer individual lessons. All offers include a holistic and accordingly goal-oriented coaching. You can find out all about the offers and prices in a free initial consultation.

  • All topics relevant to everyday life are covered in the course. (Leash walking, relaxed crossing with other dogs, staying alone, eating from the ground, etc.) Walking without a leash is simply the by-product of good and sensible training.

  • You only need three things for training: Collar (and depending on the chest harness), short leash and 10m drag line.

  • Please arrange a free initial consultation. This will tell you all about my training and we can see whether it makes sense to work together. If so, you can simply register for training with the member of staff responsible for you.

  • Normally, appointments for private training can be booked quite spontaneously. For emergency appointments, we can sometimes offer you appointments after just a few days.

  • Yes, for particularly difficult cases or if you are looking for the most effective solution in the premium area, you can bring your dog to me for training. You will receive all the information you need in a free initial consultation.
