Wind
The Tasmanian Devil
We adopted Wind when he was 3 months old; he came from an unwanted litter of a hunter’s dog from Seville. When he joined our lives we already knew that we were going to dedicate a lot of time to his education since we wanted to do Canicross together one day when he was older. What we didn’t know was how long the road ahead of us was going to be until we could reach our goal.
After a week at home we were in despair, crying and regretting having adopted him; he was a little Tasmanian devil – and that’s how we started looking for professional help. We tried with various people and methods but nothing seemed to fit until we found Can is Cool and their puppy program and Bingo! The ideas and methodology was a perfect match and we started going to the school almost every Sunday for several months. The results started coming in soon, Wind learned to live in harmony with everybody, he grew and matured while our relationship grew stronger day by day.
Teke
A spanish Galgo
I decided to go to Can is Cool because Teke, a 2 month old Spanish Galgo arrived in our lives and I didn’t want to mess it up… I wanted to do it well. I had 3 greyhounds before and even though they were relatively well behaved they were never the prime example of obedient dogs. In addition I had doubts concerning many things, like correct nutrition, behaviour etc – so I decided that it was a good idea to have a professional guiding us through the process of animal behaviour.
I think the most valuable thing Can is Cool taught me was to understand the global vision of the situation: what role the dog has in your life and what role do you have in their life. What psychological maneuvers are being played in the relationship.
They also give you the necessary tools to build a strong relationship with your dog and help you to get rid of many doubts regarding daily activities: hygiene at home, socialisation, walking the dog, etc.
Furthermore you feel that you have found an ally in Zofia, someone you can trust when the initial doubts about living with the dog arise.
Suki
and her companion Levi
When I was pregnant we found an abandoned puppy. It was love at first sight, but I knew that we had to educate the dog fast in order to make sure that there would not be any problems with the Baby. Levi was born when Suki had 7 months. Thanks to the personalized and incredibly professional help from Can is Cool, the dog was already well educated and they were best friends from the start. We strongly recommend this school because our experience was amazing. We learnt how to raise a happy dog and build a healthy and balanced family relation. We would repeat it any time… within a couple of months we turned a Pitbull-Rottweiler mix from the street into a loving and gentle “nanny dog”.
Doreen
Goku
A balanced dog
We decided to go to a school when we decided to adopt a dog, because it is essential for the well being of the family and the dog.
One day we heard about Can is Cool and seeing the good reviews and recommendations we decided to try a class. We liked it so much that we signed up for the puppy program when Goku had just turned 3 months, and we also decided to continue after with the advanced training.
Thanks to Zofia and Mia Goku is a balanced dog, obedient, loving and happy – a dog who likes adults, children and elderly people as well as other animals. He learnt to walk properly on the lead, to share his food with other animals, to interact correctly with all types of dogs and to always listen when he is off-lead.
Thanks to Can is Cool our relationship could not be better. We have learnt to understand each other even though we don’t speak the same language and to enjoy life together a lot more.

Neula
A wolf who overcame her fears
When we adopted Neula we were facing a completely unknown situation. We felt that we would not be able to train and take care of her on our own. So we took action and looked for help. We started with the puppy program in Canis Cool. What an experience! It was the first time that Neula had seen other dogs and she was very scared. Little by little, session by session she started losing her fear and the stress of the first days and she started to gain confidence in herself, and at the same in us as her guides.
We were very satisfied with everything the three of us were learning, so we continued to attend courses. We attended the basic obedience course that helped us a lot in solidifying and internalising all learnings. Lastly, we signed up for the advanced course. We discovered a lot of exercises and games, and strengthened our bond with Neula.
Floki
A very cheerful mastiff
Floki was an almost three month old puppy when I adopted him. Without knowing much how to educate him from the beginning I went to Can is Cool to learn the foundations. In Can is Cool we learnt the guidelines about education and socialisation with a lot of puppies and people. We learnt in Can is Cool how to teach good recall, they always use positive reinforcement. We also learnt to understand our dog. And to correct behaviour that was not right, so that the puppy would grow into a properly educated dog. The experience has truly enriched us and I recommend it to everyone.
Pilar
Blue
Very active hunting dog
I have very much enjoyed the puppy training with Can is Cool.
My experience with dogs was very small; my pup Blue is a hunting dog and she’s very active. Therefore, it was important for me to learn some things for Blue to be a happy puppy. Amongst the things we’ve learned is for her to sit and stay and have some self-control. Also, we’ve learned for her to focus on me on our walks, so she is not all over the place. For myself I have learned that it’s important to participate actively in our communication; Blue is a happy pup that wants to please her owner.
Elisa
Lau
The little shepherd boy
We decided to go to the school Can is Cool because we were living with Lau, a Border Collie, and the truth is that we had no idea how to educate him well. In addition, the thousand videos on the internet on “how to raise a puppy” confused us more than helped us.
When we started the puppy program Lau was between 3 and 4 months old and we had taught him practically nothing. So we were very excited to go to the course, above all, to learn ourselves.
We have learnt many things that really make our lives easier, like to sit, to lie down, to walk in a loose heel with us, toilet training, be calm at home, etc. But what we value the most is the bond that we have created with Lau, thanks to understanding his needs and how Lau communicates them. We have also learnt how to turn feared and intense moments that we wanted to avoid into moments of enjoyment.
Heidi and Dali
The hunter brothers
We looked for a puppy training in Barcelona to socialize our two dogs Heidi & Dali with others. Our dogs were really scared at the beginning and hiding in a corner from the other dogs. It was hard for us to believe that this will change quickly. Thanks that we found Zofia and her team!
Already after a few classes – where we trained Heidi & Dali also separately – they were much better and very curious about others.
Not only that they made great progress socializing, we also showed them great tricks to keep them busy. But most importantly we understood much better the needs and behaviour of our new family members and how two raise two puppies at the same time. Can is Cool gave us great support facing this challenge.
