Sehr gute Hunde Betreuung.Wir haben Hr.Karakaya zufällig gefunden und schon nach ersten Treffen haben wir gutes Gefühl gehabt. Gute Arbeit.Daumen hoch.
Der beste Hundebetreuer in Berlin leider von mir zuhause relativ weit weg aber 100% lohnt sich der weg dahin für den Aufenthalt des Hundes. die Hunde dort haben spaß und werden gut versorgt, so dass man sich im Urlaub wirklich entspannen kann und weiß, dass es bei Herr Karakaya dem Hund gut geht. Sehr empfehlenswert Daumen hoch
This has to be the most welcoming, professional and well-run Hundakita in Berlin! Herr Karakaya is a star -- he was friends with our two-year-old Romanian rescue in a heartbeat, establishing a trusting connection immediately. (With other people, our dog is often wary for months) It's been such a relief to find such a wonderful second home for our Seba! I can't recommend Herr Karakaya highly enough.
When looking for a Hundebetreuer, we were initially quite concerned. Our Seba is a rescue dog from Romania, and is extremely nervous with new people and some dogs. However, Herr Karakaya has proved to be an excellent caregiver. He is extraordinarily gentle with the dogs, as well as firm when he needs to be, and Seba is very clearly happy at his house. The nearby forest makes it even more of a vacation for the dog. I would recommend Hundebetreuer-in to anyone looking for a Hundekita or Hundepension, even for dogs that are somewhat difficult.
A RECOMMENDATION WITHOUT RESERVATIONS
There has been much said about the reasons dogs love this place: they are not penned in, they get to go for long walks in the woods next door, on warm summer days they may even enjoy the privelege of a swim in the nearby lake. They may always freely play in the garden or inside. In addition, the dogs are introduced to each other and are supervised in such a careful way that they are enabled to enjoy each others presence thoroghly. Escalation is scrupulously avoided. The dogs - at least mine - come home thoroughly happy and exhausted.
But I drive the 70 minutes on trains and buses through Berlin to take my cockerpoo Joey to Mr. Karakaya because HE has qualities which I particularly admire and trust.
1) His understanding of dogs: Though he is thoroughly informed about schools of thought regarding training and rehabilitation of dogs, he is in no way dogmatic. He uses his breadth and depth knowlege to find particular solutions that work for particular dogs. And he seems to always find GENTLE ways to prevent the escalation of aggression between the dogs that is so often seen elsewhere.
2) His huge heart for dogs: Joey liked and responded to him immediately. Hr. Karakaya was very warm and sensitive in his way of approaching him, all the while maintaining a relaxed atmosphere with his sense of humor. I felt immediately that Joey would find his emotional spot here.
3) His professionality: Whilst allowing for the huge amount of flexibility necessary to deal with his dogs and their owners, Mr. Karakaya is very professional and clear with regard to his own expectations of the owners. And he manages to maintain the kinds of dependable rituals and schedules that are so important for dogs.
4) His experience: The breadth of his experience coupled with a good and ever-present eye make it possible for Mr. Karakaya to recognize and solve problems BEFORE they become problems. He seems to know all the gentle tweeks.
5) I would be HUGELY surprised if you and your dog wouldn't also like and trust Mr. Karakaya.
One last note: My Joey wasn't an especially "problem" dog, but every week he comes back a little better after spendeng time with Mr. Karakaya: a little more obedient, a little better with children, a little better with aggressive dogs. And if I ever have a question, Mr Karakaya is always happy to make a few suggestions.
