Dog trainer and specialist in interspecies communication

Positive reinforcement training first came into the picture eight years ago thanks to a reactive dog. For seven years, work focused on ethical training of animals (both exotic and domesticated) in cooperation with Franta Šusta and Klára Nevečeřalová.

The diploma thesis was devoted to the so‑called zero variant of behaviour and research in interspecies communication continues to this day, with a particular focus on how dogs perceive human emotions.

Every dog is seen as a unique personality, and the belief is that life together between humans and dogs should be based on mutual love and respect.
