# Buddy Topdogtraining - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `buddytopdogtraining.nl` ## Description Buddy Topdogtraining provides dog-assisted support for children and young people, generally aged 4 to 20, who need extra help with their development. Its approach includes a specially selected dog as a co-trainer or participant in the support process, helping clients work toward personal goals. The organisation offers two main services. Buddy Topdogtraining is an individual, goal-oriented programme lasting approximately three months. It focuses on areas such as social skills and resilience. For children and young people who need more support than this short-term training can provide, the Buddy Topdog guidance programme offers longer-term assistance. This programme is tailored in consultation with the child and their family or wider support system. Information is available for children in child-friendly language, and families can enquire or submit an enrolment form through the website. The service is led by Melissa Versluys, a Topdog trainer and behavioural scientist working with children under 12, and Stefan Schipper, a Topdog trainer for ages 12 and older and a teacher in specialised secondary education. ## Industries - ⛑ Health - ⛑ Developmental and Physical Disabilities _(under Health)_ - ⛑ Childrens Health _(under Health)_ ## Logos & icons - logo _(primary)_ — PNG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/id4YkZrNC6/w/180/h/117/theme/dark/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1793465428697) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Olive Drab | #73ab28 | accent | | Tundora | #424242 | dark | | White | #ffffff | light | ## Fonts - Verdana — asset _(custom)_ --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
