THE HAUSE KALIGULA DOG TRAINING GROUND
The Hause Kaligula dog training ground is an integral part of the Hause Kaligula Rottweiler kennel, forming a unique complex for breeding and training Rottweilers.
Hause Kaligula training ground is configured to be stimulating, comfortable and save for our Rottweilers.
SIZE: Training area is big enough for all three phases of IGP program: tracking, obedience and protection work. It is large, open space, located in natural environment (the edge of Brzansko Moraviste nature park, next to the Velika Morava river bank).
Free of distraction, such as urban noise, this place guarantees the dog’s complete focus on learning.
SAFETY: The training ground is secured by a triple fence-farmer’s wire and rows of trees on both sides of the wire. The features of the fence designed in this way ensure the complete well-being of the dogs and eliminate the risk of overheating during training.
RIVER: Swimming in the river is a beneficial addition to post-training routine. As a a low-impact activity, it helps to move blood through the muscles of dog, facilitating relax and cool down. In the same time, the buoyancy of the water improves flexibility and range of motion in the joints, which is beneficial after training.
The dog training ground and all related equipment are the property of the Hause Kaligula team.
