Dogs have always been my dream – it only became reality with Adrian and our first own four-legged friend. As a certified animal caregiver FBA and trained puppy/young dog trainer, I combine care and training into a holistic approach. For me, continuity, bonding, and species-appropriate activity in everyday life are the keys to a harmonious human-dog relationship.
Adrian
Grew up with dogs and trained in business psychology, I now combine leadership skills and structure with genuine love for animals. After years in consulting, I decided on FBA training and a future with dogs. As a certified cynology instructor, I stand for professional training with heart and mind.
Claudia
Animals have accompanied me since I can remember – from guinea pigs to my own dog. During my time as a shepherdess in England, I gained valuable experience in dog behavior. Back in Switzerland, I completed the FBA training and worked in dog daycare as well as grooming.
Samira
My love of dogs began with my grandmother – today I am a certified animal caretaker EFZ. My travels took me from an animal welfare project in the Philippines to shark research in Egypt. For over 10 years, I gathered insights about animals worldwide – and realized: The bond between humans and dogs is unique.
Gabriela
After 22 years in finance, I turned my passion into a career: training with dogs and people. I have lived with eight dogs – each one enriched and shaped me. As a trainer, I see humans and dogs as a team that strengthens each other.
Joanna
My passion for dogs has accompanied me since my childhood in Poland. After stops in the USA, New Zealand, and Germany, I came to Switzerland and opened my own grooming salon. With my Malamute Django by my side, I am proud to be part of the DOG AFFAIR team.
Nikita
For eight years, I headed up the dog department at Zurich Animal Welfare, where I had the privilege of caring for and training countless dogs. As a certified animal keeper, I have a passion for animals in general, but dogs in particular. In my free time, I love being outdoors with my two four-legged friends. I am delighted to be able to contribute my knowledge to DOG AFFAIR.
