On 14.06.18, the winner of the summer weekend competition Désirée with Jasper enjoyed a private introduction with Anita from Suphund.ch/Filmtier.ch at the beautiful Lake Walen (SG). We were there:

Anita (SUP Instructor SKV/SWAV) and animal trainer (Karen Pryor Academy/Filmhund.ch)
is at home on the water and animals are her passion. She enjoys teaching teams the joy of riding the board. Whether it's teaching the right technique for paddling or how best to get the dog used to the board. She works with animals exclusively with positive training methods, without any pressure or coercion and conveys her years of experience with animals in an impressive way. Also the dog should be voluntarily on the board and have fun with it.

Desirée and Jasper obviously enjoyed it and can hardly wait until they start their next trip to the beautiful Lake Walen! We are also thrilled and look forward to the next meeting!
