The vision of the dog competence center
Here you'll find everything your dog needs, all in one place. No more tedious trips from pillar to post, no more endless car journeys. Our vision: A place where expert knowledge converges. Imagine your veterinarian, nutritionist, physiotherapist, and dog trainer working hand in hand for your dog's well-being. No more searching, no more coordinating. We bring all aspects together to achieve the best for you and your four-legged friend. At the Bavarian Dog Competence Center in Sinzing near Regensburg, we offer holistic care so that you and your dog feel completely at ease. Welcome to a world where everything comes together – for a strong bond between you and your loyal companion.
The team
One team. One goal. Your pet at the center.
At the dog competence center, each expert works independently and autonomously – yet we are a well-coordinated team that is there for you and your animal.
Our goal is holistic care that doesn't just treat symptoms, but considers the animal as a whole – with heart, mind, and combined expertise from various fields. Together, we're here to support you – for better health, well-being, and a harmonious relationship between humans and animals.

Dieter Neubig
My goal is to show you how to train your dog for everyday life – for a stress-free and harmonious relationship. Every dog is unique, just like you. That's why I tailor my training to your needs and those of your dog.
As an expert, I also support you with expert opinions, temperament tests and classifications according to Art. 37 LStVG – e.g. for exemption from leash requirements or muzzle requirements.
Together we will find the right path for you and your dog.

Susanne Heuser
My name is Susanne Maria Hauser, and working with animals is my greatest passion. Since childhood, I've felt a deep connection to animals that has stayed with me throughout my life. After many years in the hotel industry and a turning point following the loss of my mother, I decided to follow my true calling and train as an animal naturopath. This step led me to my current work, where I take a holistic approach to the health and well-being of animals. In my animal naturopathic practice, I work with alternative healing methods such as bioresonance, energy work, and animal communication. It's particularly important to me not only to treat symptoms but also to find the underlying causes in order to facilitate lasting recovery. My dogs, especially my dog Frieda, have accompanied me on this journey and helped me discover and develop my skills. They are my greatest teachers and the reason why I have dedicated myself so completely to animal naturopathy. I look forward to welcoming you and your animal to my practice and working together on the health and well-being of your four-legged friends!
