Meet Your Instructor: Pierre Lamarie
We are proud to have Pierre Lamarie at the helm of this discipline, an official Instructor-Trainer for the RSCE and CEPPA. With over 20 years of experience forging dog-handler teams and educating dogs, his track record speaks for itself:
- Two-time Spanish National IGP Champion.

His methodology guarantees an elite, structured, and motivating training program that is deeply respectful of the dog's nature and well-being.
What is IGP and Why Practice It?
IGP is considered the triathlon of dog sports. It is divided into three highly technical and demanding phases: Tracking, Obedience, and Protection. Beyond trophies and competition, practicing a joint sport like IGP provides incalculable benefits:
- An unbreakable bond: Teamwork fosters deep communication, along with absolute mutual loyalty and trust between the dog and its handler.
- Perfect balance: It provides the highest level of mental and physical stimulation, creating confident, stable, and truly happy dogs.
- Instinct channeling: It helps the dog manage its natural impulses constructively and under complete control.
RSCE Accredited Center (Spanish Kennel Club)
Excellence and official recognition are the pillars of our association. As an accredited center by the RSCE and the CEPPA in Mojácar, we not only prepare you for high-level competition, but we also organize and host official sociability tests and working title exams right at our facilities.
Whether you dream of stepping onto the podium or simply want to enjoy the most exciting dog sport alongside your best friend, you are in the best hands.

Why is Foundation Training Essential?
A well-trained dog is, above all, a free and happy dog. It is not about creating robots, but about establishing healthy rules of coexistence that allow your companion to seamlessly integrate into your daily life without stress.
Through our programs, you will achieve:
- Two-way communication: You will learn to "read" your dog and convey what you expect from them clearly and kindly.
- Practical obedience for real life: We build useful behaviors such as a reliable recall, relaxed walks without leash pulling, and the ability to remain calm in different environments.
- Problem prevention: We approach education from the ground up to prevent the development of unwanted behaviors, fostering confident, sociable, and balanced dogs.
Tailored Education and Personalized Attention
Every dog is unique, and therefore, we adapt our sessions to the specific needs of your companion and your family. To guarantee the highest quality of teaching, promote rapid learning, and maintain a stress-free environment, we work exclusively through one-on-one sessions or in very small groups.
This methodology allows us to:
-
Focus 100% on the details that make a difference in your specific case.
-
Answer your questions instantly and correct your handling technique in real-time.
-
Progress at the exact pace that you and your dog need.
