Important info for GMAIL users
Our mails often land in the "Social" or "Promotions" tabs instead of the "Primary" tab – please, always check these! In order to add us to the trusted e-mail senders, kindly drag and drop our mail into your "Primary" tab – and answer "Yes" to the pop-up question on the centre top part of your screen. From that on, our mails will always land in your "Primary" tab.
Important information when our dog becomes part of a community (reg. kennel cough)
Since your dog will get into a dog community at one of our centres, and nationwide we witness an epidemic 1-2 times yearly, kindly acknowledge the below information and act at your own discretion.
The “combined vaccination” is only effective against a certain part of the pathogens causing kennel cough (distemper virus, adenovirus, or parainfluenza virus in the case of certain vaccinations). As an amendment, our guests can be vaccinated against parainfluenza and Bordetella brochiseptica. This can be done with an injection (Pneumodog, basic (first) vaccination at an age of 4-6 weeks, to be repeated after 2-3 weeks, then yearly once), or (preferred) in an intranasally (Nobivac KC at an age of 3 weeks, with protection after 3-4 days against Bordetella, to be repeated yearly). At the same time it is important to note, that in spite of the protection, and due to the nature of the disease (might be transferred by less frequent pathogens), your dog might still get sick (in spite of the minimal risk and maximum hygienic standards). The disease often heals by itself, such as a cold among humans. With antitussives, anti-inflammatories, expectorants, vitamins and immune strengtheners, or occasionally antibiotics, the healing can be accelerated and coughing relieved.
Dogmopolite
Dog School Debrecen
It's not enough for your dog to understand you, you have to understand your dog!
We expect our dogs to know when and what is the right behaviour and to be trouble-free companions in hectic or monotonous everyday life. However, many people are not aware of their dog's needs or when and why they do what. This is where we can help owners and give them the tools to learn basic obedience tasks so that when, for example, a dog starts to bark hysterically, the owner can see and understand what it wants or what the trigger might be and how to deal with it properly. Mutual respect and clear, consistent communication is the basis of everything, taking into account the dog's boundaries, abilities, personality and temperament. We also need to understand them and provide a stable, strong support in everyday life. Dogs are family, so they need to know that they can rely on us in every situation, just as we can rely on them.
Contact and Communication
For family dogs, the most important thing is to develop a common language between dog and owner that they both understand and, more importantly, understand equally well. If we say to our dog "We're going for a walk" he shouldn't run to his plate, and if we ask him to be patient, he should understand that this is not his time, that will come later.
Much of this common language is not words, of course, but body language, which owners need to learn and use properly.
Family Dogs
It is important to distinguish family dog walking from working dog walking. The aim with working dogs is to work as efficiently, persistently and accurately as possible. Training is structured accordingly. Companion animals, however, face very different challenges, such as long hours alone without destructing your home, being friendly with everyone, not guarding food, the ball or the bed.
They have completely different expectations and are expected to do completely different things. That is why it is much more effective to make a difference in training and to use family dog methods.
Positive Reinforcement
During training, we focus on positive reinforcement of the desired behaviour, but it is important that we do not only use positive reinforcement. Our goal is to build the dog's willingness to cooperate, motivate, reward, and punish in the appropriate way.
Exactly what we call reward and punishment depends a lot on the personality of the dog and the owner, as some dogs find throwing the ball the greatest reward, others like a block of cheese or a chance to play a big game with their buddies.
Body Language
The body language of dogs is important for more than just communication with their owners. Most people like to take their dogs for walks and socialize with others. In order to make these encounters as problem-free as possible, it is important to know your own dog well and to be aware of the other dog's signals.
For example, play is play as long as each participant enjoys it and is happy to continue, whereas an unwanted approach or outburst at another dog, person or object can cause serious problems. Not only are hours of work wasted on a dog currently in training, but serious injuries can also occur.
Problem-Free Coexistence
The aim of family dog training is to make everyday living together as easy and trouble-free as possible for the family and the dog. For example, if you like to let your dog into the house, it's easier to teach him to always wipe his feet before you let him in than to clean up after him every day.
Our dog is happy because he is given a task, so he gets mentally tired and we build a relationship with him, and we don't have to constantly deal with the mess our pet brings in.
Owner-Centred Approach
There are some basic things that are useful to teach every dog. What's more important for each dog, or what else is worth teaching in addition to the basics, varies! It's important at the start of the training process to be clear about who has what goals or problems to solve, and to plan the training with these in mind.
There are always some tasks that are more effective to learn in a group and others that can be done really well in an individual lesson.
Group Classes
In our group classes, you and your dog will have the opportunity to socialize with other dogs and their owners, fostering important social skills and creating lasting bonds. Led by our team of experienced and certified trainers, these classes are designed to address common behaviour issues, obedience training, and basic commands.
Our group training sessions offer a structured curriculum that progresses at a pace suitable for all participants. Whether you have a new puppy or an adult dog, our trainers will tailor the training exercises to meet the needs of each individual. Additionally, the group setting allows for real-life distractions, which helps dogs develop their focus and impulse control in various situations.
Participating in group training not only enhances your dog's obedience and behaviour, but it also provides a platform for you to connect with fellow dog owners, exchange experiences, and build a supportive community. Join us for our group training sessions and witness the positive transformation in your dog's behaviour and your relationship with them.
Private Sessions
With private training, you and your dog will receive one-on-one guidance from our experienced trainers, who will assess your dog's behaviour, identify areas of improvement, and develop a tailored training program just for you. This individualized approach allows for focused training sessions that can effectively address specific challenges or goals that may be difficult to target in a group setting.
During private training, you will have the undivided attention of our trainers, allowing for in-depth discussions, demonstrations, and immediate feedback. This level of personalized attention enables faster progress and better results. Whether you're dealing with behaviour problems, advanced obedience training, or specialized skills, our trainers will work closely with you and your dog to achieve your desired outcomes.
Private training sessions can be scheduled at your convenience, offering flexibility to fit your busy lifestyle. With a dedicated trainer by your side, you'll receive the support and guidance needed to overcome challenges and achieve the training goals you have set for your dog. Embark on this personalized training journey with Dogmopolite and experience the transformative impact it can have on your dog's behaviour and your bond with them.
Our Trainers
Szalontai Gréta
I have taken several dog training courses, in several different methods, I regularly attend lectures, workshops and seminars to absorb as much knowledge as possible. For 7 years I have been leading and facilitating a variety of private and group training courses. Previously, I volunteered in a shelter for many years, where I encountered many different types of dogs and many different problems. I have a heart for the fate of rescued dogs, my own was rescued from a shelter. I also have a life coach qualification, which has improved my communication skills and my ability to focus on the solution rather than the problem in each situation. My current dog is a Belgian Shepherd-Dutch Shepherd mix with character traits, who can take on quite extreme behaviours in a variety of situations. His difficult nature has taught me humility and openness to deal with situations not out of habit, but to be present and adapt to the opportunities and framework of the moment. In my spare time I like to work with horses, both from the ground and from behind. Although they are two very different species, I use what I learn from them in my work with dogs.
Nyikos Orsolya
I am Orsolya Nyikos, dog physiotherapist and trainer. I have been in the dog training field for over 20 years, during which time I have met countless dogs and cases. I like to deal with problems as a complex whole, together with the owners, because there is no such thing as only the dog being to blame. I have experience in several sports (agility, frisbee, canicross) and have achieved significant results with my dogs. I constantly try to expand and keep my knowledge fresh through webinars and various trainings. It is important to me to have clear and open communication from all parties, which I like to spice up with quirky but illustrative examples. In 2019 I had the opportunity to train ponies for agility, which has fundamentally changed my approach to training.

Dog Physiotherapy
Dog physiotherapy is a non-invasive and drug-free approach to improving the health and well-being of dogs suffering from a wide range of medical conditions. This specialized form of therapy involves the use of targeted exercises, massage, and other treatments designed to address injuries, mobility issues, or chronic illnesses that can impact a dog's quality of life.
Physiotherapy treatments can be especially helpful for dogs recovering from surgeries, injuries, or illnesses, as well as dogs dealing with mobility issues caused by conditions such as hip dysplasia, arthritis, or neurological disorders. A trained and experienced physiotherapist can evaluate the dog's condition, develop a customized treatment plan, and work with the dog and their owners to implement the plan and monitor progress.
One of the primary goals of dog physiotherapy is to reduce pain and inflammation, which can be accomplished through the use of techniques like massage, heat or cold therapy, ultrasound, and electrical stimulation. Therapeutic exercises are also an essential part of physiotherapy, as they can help to improve mobility, strength, and balance, as well as promote the dog's overall health and well-being.
Another significant benefit of dog physiotherapy is that it is non-invasive, meaning that it does not require the use of drugs or surgery. Instead, physiotherapy treatments are designed to work with the dog's natural healing processes, promoting natural recovery and rehabilitation. In some cases, dog physiotherapy can even help to reduce the need for medication or other invasive treatments, which can be especially beneficial for dogs with chronic conditions that require ongoing care.
Overall, dog physiotherapy is a valuable tool for helping dogs achieve optimal health and function, as well as providing them with a better quality of life. Whether a dog is recovering from an injury, dealing with a chronic condition, or simply experiencing mobility issues, physiotherapy can be an effective way to improve their health and well-being. By working with a skilled physiotherapist, dog owners can help their furry friends to live happy, healthy, and active lives.
About our treatments
Assessment
A thorough assessment is an essential component of any successful dog physiotherapy treatment. During the assessment, the physiotherapist will evaluate the dog's overall health and specific injuries or conditions. They may also consider the dog's age, breed, and temperament when designing a personalized treatment plan. The physiotherapist may perform various tests, such as gait analysis and range of motion assessments, to get a better understanding of the dog's needs. This information helps to create a tailored treatment plan and monitor progress throughout the treatment process.
Massage
Massage is a key component of many dog physiotherapy treatments. It can help to improve circulation, reduce pain and stiffness, and increase range of motion. The physiotherapist may use a variety of massage techniques, including kneading, stroking, and circular movements, depending on the dog's specific needs. Massage can be particularly beneficial for dogs with arthritis, hip dysplasia, or other mobility issues.
Gymnastics
Gymnastics, or therapeutic exercises, can help to improve muscle strength, coordination, and balance in dogs. The physiotherapist may use a variety of tools and equipment, such as balance balls, resistance bands, and obstacles, to design a personalized exercise program for the dog. These exercises can be particularly helpful for dogs recovering from surgery or dealing with neurological conditions.
Ultrasound post-treatment
Ultrasound therapy is a common component of dog physiotherapy treatments. It uses high-frequency sound waves to promote healing and reduce inflammation in affected areas. After an ultrasound treatment, it's important to rest the dog and avoid strenuous activity to allow the body time to heal. Ultrasound therapy can be particularly helpful for dogs recovering from soft tissue injuries, such as strains or sprains.
TENS treatment
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses electrical impulses to stimulate the nerves and reduce pain. It can be particularly effective for dogs with chronic pain conditions, such as arthritis or hip dysplasia. TENS treatment can help to reduce reliance on pain medication and improve overall quality of life for dogs.
Dog Swimming
Swimming can be an effective form of low-impact exercise for dogs with mobility issues. It can help to build muscle strength and improve overall fitness, without putting undue stress on the joints. A physiotherapist can design a swimming program tailored to the dog's specific needs and abilities. Swimming can be particularly helpful for dogs recovering from orthopedic surgery or dealing with conditions like hip dysplasia.
