Treibball
Treibball, also known as urban herding or push ball, is a dog sport where dogs, guided by their handlers, herd large exercise balls into a goal. It originated in Germany and combines elements of traditional herding with influences from human sports like football.

Workshop
Great way to give your dog a good understanding of the sport and start getting to grips with it all. Work on fundamental skills with your dog that build as you progress together as a team

Who can play?
Although designed for herding breeds any dog can learn Treibball and succeed at the sport. We have had every breed come and try from Leonbergers to tiny poodle crosses. All have fun and get the game very quickly!
Why?
Why not! Treibball not only is a low impact sport so great for dogs of all ages but also a mentally stimulating! Giving your dog a different challenge while also working your dog at distance builds your bond!

Balls
The balls are soft, inflated and bouncy. While they could pop they are unlikely too as your dog will be taught to nudge with their nose and not bite. Smaller balls are given to puppies or smaller breeds
Classes
Classes for Treibball will be coming very soon! To make sure you don't miss out on a spot please make sure your name is down on the list and when we are ready to get going you will be the first to know

I’ve been training dogs and horses for over 25 years and I’m passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience of training and rehabilitating animals to help you and your dog create a perfect partnership.
My knowledge and experience of coaching Treibball has come straight from the source in Germany, having trained under some of the top Treibball trainers in Europe. I have competed and judged at international Treibball tournaments and I am excited to be the first to be offering this exciting sport in Dorset! I can’t wait to share my experience with you and your four-legged temmates!

YOUR TRAINERS ARE...
I’ve been training dogs for over 15 years and I started my own business straight out of University.
My knowledge in Behaviour comes from my day to day handling of dogs as a Professional Groomer and Hydrotherapist which has led me into the Dog Gym work I do now and the Online Canine Conditioning Courses I run for you every week.
My Training Experience has helped many reactive dogs find harmony with their owners and neutrality amongst other dogs and Training is truly my passion - watching an owner connect and enjoy their dog is magic to me. I am learning from Alex to teach Treibball to you all here in Kent!
