Our approach is to develop an understanding of your dog's personality in order to encourage and nurture them in appropriate areas and ways.
A bit of our history
A bit of our history
The Fröscher dog school was founded in 1979.
It was the first dog school in the Basel region to develop and practice a non-violent method of upbringing. At that time there were no official dog training courses as they are now carried out in various dog sports clubs and other dog schools.
​
Now the next generation: Heidi Wood, daughter of Heinz and Eli Fröscher, is continuing to run the Fröscher dog school together with Mike Ford. Building on the already non-violent method, the two go into depth with a pedagogical approach. At this point we would like to thank Eli and Heinz for their work!
​
The Fröscher dog school has been located near the Muttenz BL train station since 1982 and covers an area of approx. 1600 m2, which borders the Hardwald. You can reach us by train, bus or tram and a short walk. There is enough parking space for cars.
A cozy lounge is available to our guests as soon as Covid let's us use it. There is various dog sports equipment throughout the fenced practice area.
HEIDI HELPS! MIKE MAKES IT POSSIBLE.
Double the cast = double the quality:
If circumstances allow, we prefer to work together. The way in which our talents and our experiences complement each other noticeably increases the quality of our teaching.
