Hi, My name is Sofia, 29, living in Oslo with my husband and dog. Working as an Admission Consultant in an Upper-secondary school in Oslo as well as a dog trainer! I am passionate about animals, and my dream has always been to work with dogs or other animals.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I grew up having a lot of animals like guinea pig, rabbit, lovebirds and other birds, turtles and even a duck. My family in Greece had a street mix called Aris, and I got my own dog, a medium-sized poodle, when I was 12. After many years of happiness they passed away💔⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hereafter my husband and I fostered a goldenlab (named Kronos🦮) who went on becoming a guide dog. After him we fostered a standard poodle (named Stella🐕🦺). She didn’t pass as a guide dog due to stress, so her career changed to our family dog❤️ I’ve trained a lot with Stella, and together with everything I’ve learned from my studies I’ve seen the huge benefit of the training! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have realized that due to the pandemic many people became new dog-owners, and I’m afraid many dogs won’t get the training they need. I want to work as a dog instructor to learn more (cause you can never learn enough), to show the importance of training from the first day with a puppy, but also to inspire and motivate you to make training fun for both owners and dogs! You’ll see the amazing bond you and your dog can achieve by training in a good way🥰
