NHB - Nationales Hundehalter Brevet

11-part workshop with Mischi - Start if enough interested parties

Would you like to train important everyday situations with your dog and possibly even take the National Dog Owner Brevet exam?

We are delighted to be able to offer the National Dog Owner Certificate (NBH). This goes hand in hand with the NHB exam.

What is the National Dog Owner Certificate (NBH)?

In some cantons of Switzerland, the National Dog Owner Certificate (NHB for short) is already compulsory.
This is not (yet) the case in Zurich, but we still offer the preparation course in our 11-part workshop.
Of course we can also take the exam.
Exam fee incl. certificate in credit card format: CHF 250.00

The long-term goal of the NHB is to offer a standardized concept throughout Switzerland, which should be mandatory for all dog owners.

The learning objectives are things from everyday life and very versatile - so they are also very practical to master even if you do not have an NHB obligation

Thanks to our first dog Djali, I discovered fairtrain as a customer.
I was immediately impressed by the great atmosphere in the group course, the progressive training methods and the enthusiasm of the trainers.

As luck would have it (fortunately), Mumi needed support in the office at the time and I was looking for a new professional challenge at the same time - and poof - since the end of 2021 I have been Head of Administration and Assistant to the Management of fairtrain.
During my first few weeks as an office fairy, I realized that I didn't just want to support fairtrain in administrative matters, but also as a dog trainer.

And so I started studying to become a dog trainer at the ATN (Academy for Applied Animal Psychology and Animal Behavior Training).
During these two years, I was able to accompany the entire fairtrain team and look over their shoulders. I quickly discovered my passion for dog sports, especially agility and Nadac.
I have been teaching these two great exercise courses since 2023 and am always fascinated by how great progress can be achieved through positive reinforcement.

With my now two dogs (two shepherd mixes) we mainly train in the area of tricks and activity.
With our youngest addition to the family, we are of course building up our agility training.
