Your pet will be in good hands
My name is Natalia Lipińska, and I went to the dogs 20 years ago.
As a teenager, I began working with my first dog, Beza, in sports. Even though I had a psychology degree, I was drawn to the world of cynology, and after a few years, Joy joined us. This was a real challenge that pushed me to develop my skills in behavior and working with anxious dogs. Currently, Rev and Zari, two boys who often help me run classes and teach other dogs how to communicate, live with me.
My dogs write the script of my life. I grew with them, following their offerings. Thanks to this, in addition to fifteen years of experience competing and coaching sports, I also became fascinated by scent work for many years. That's how I ended up in rescue work, where we trained under the guidance of the best for several years.
When one of them was severely bitten, my entire attention for almost two years focused on his recovery. Today, I'm also a qualified dog fitness instructor.
Many twists and turns in life with my dogs have led me here.
To the point where I want to help dogs recover from trauma. And their humans see the best in them. Heal relationships at home. Also for people who are neuroatypical or struggling with disorders. This is exactly what my university education helps me with.
I understand both sides of the leash and I want to build an understanding between you for years to come.

I've been a certified DOGFITNESS instructor since 2023, but I use it primarily to supplement my work with my own dogs and those of my clients. RESCUE in the years 2018-2023 involved participation in trainings, seminars, and international camps with the most experienced instructors, also having experience conducting rescue training.
Although my personal experience spans over 20 years, I have been professionally helping dogs and their handlers since 2021. In my work, I combine extensive experience gained from years of working with dogs in sports, rescue, and civilian settings, as well as my knowledge of behavioral and psychological sciences.
This allows me to tailor my methods to the situation and not limit myself to "the only right way." Because I believe that flexible thinking is our greatest weapon in the fight against problems.
I'm a psychologist by training. Currently, I enjoy working with dogs in their everyday lives; I'm not afraid of challenging cases. This brings me the greatest satisfaction, providing real help to dogs and their owners, making their lives easier and more enjoyable. My approach to working with dogs is comprehensive and doesn't overlook any area. My philosophy is to understand the dog, select appropriate methods for the dog, not the other way around, respect the dog and its personality, and above all, be fair to the dog at every step. I strive to teach this to owners and increase awareness in relationships with dogs, because they are such complex, beautiful, and incredible beings.
My dream for the future is to create a place that will combine a shelter for senior dogs with a rehabilitation center for dogs with traumas that are not suitable for adoption.
