De Honderwijzer

De Honderwijzer provides welfare-focused training for hunting dogs and their owners, led by Saskia from Eibergen in the Achterhoek. Serving clients across the Achterhoek, Twente and Gelderland, including Berkelland, Winterswijk, Groenlo and Ruurlo, the business helps owners understand and guide their dogs’ natural hunting instincts. Its approach uses clicker training and rewards, without pressure, punishment or physical corrections, and adapts to each dog and human partnership.

Training options include Click & Klaar, an online course teaching clear clicker-training skills through small steps, and private lessons for challenges such as tension, excitement, pulling or loss of contact. In-person hunting-dog training offers a considered starting point for owners, including beginners, who want to develop skills such as retrieving, waiting, heelwork and recall. Rather than treating these as isolated tricks, De Honderwijzer focuses on calm, communication and cooperation, building foundations suited to what each dog can manage.

The website also shares practical articles and training tips, with a newsletter covering new content and available lesson times.
