Suchenpfiff is a dog school in Bremervörde, Germany, specializing in dummy training, a form of hunting-related dog sport that goes beyond retrieving. Trainer Frank Hoffmann works with dogs and handlers at all experience levels, from beginners learning the fundamentals to teams preparing for dummy tests. Training covers marking, directing dogs to retrieves, searching, water work, and basic obedience.

The school offers individual coaching for specific training challenges as well as group sessions where participants can practise together and learn from one another. Suchenpfiff also organizes seminars, weekend courses, and training holidays in Germany and abroad, giving handlers opportunities to train in varied settings and enjoy the sport with like-minded people.

Hoffmann has handled Labrador Retrievers since 1996 and has competed in working tests and mock trials since 2010. He also holds a hunting licence and is certified under Germany’s Animal Welfare Act, with approval from the Rotenburg/Wümme veterinary authority. Suchenpfiff provides practical, professionally guided training for handlers seeking to develop their dogs’ skills and confidence.
