Lhe 13 Hours is interested in a developing profession, that of dog trainer. A recent activity in the world of work, but how do you know if you are facing a professional?

Training your dog can be more complicated than it seems. Overwhelmed, Céline Roggia called on a dog trainer for Sinai, her one-year-old dog. A behaviorist helps him better understand his animal. Lesson of the day: learn to restrain your dog. The price to pay is 260 euros for four sessions. “When [le maître] sees his dog as he is, then in this case, everything is better, the communication goes better”says Mickaël Laurent, canine and behavioral traineryou.

Sometimes finding the right educator turns into a nightmare. Nemo was rather calm, his mistress wanted him to meet other dogs. For this, she called a professional, but it went very badly. So how not to be wrong? In this sector, methods and prices are different, and the training is very fast, only three days to become an educator. Largely insufficient for Mélissa Dufour, who is getting into the business. She has decided to take an additional 50 days and will have to pay 5,000 euros out of her pocket for, according to her, “doing your job properly”.
