FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
What makes MANA ALPHA different from other dog trainers?
MANA ALPHA focuses on leadership, structure, and responsibility.
We do not offer quick fixes, entertainment-based training, or trend-driven methods. Our work is calm, structured, and based on long-term stability for both dog and handler.
Do you guarantee results?
No.
Dog training depends on consistency, responsibility, and follow-through by the handler. We provide clear guidance and structure, but results cannot be guaranteed.
How many sessions are included in a program?
All training programs consist of 5 structured sessions unless otherwise agreed.
Do you offer single sessions?
No.
We work with structured programs only. This ensures clarity, continuity, and meaningful progress.
Do you work with aggressive or reactive dogs?
Yes.
Behavior correction is part of our work. However, acceptance depends on an initial assessment and the handler’s willingness to take responsibility.
Do you train puppies?
Yes.
Our Puppy Foundations program focuses on early structure, calm behavior, and prevention of future problems.
Where does training take place?
Training takes place by appointment only, either at our location in São Paio Gouveia or in appropriate real-life environments, depending on the program and the dog.
Can I just drop my dog off for training?
No.
We do not offer board-and-train or dog-only training. The handler must be actively involved in the process.
Do you use force or punishment?
We use structure, boundaries, and clear communication.
We do not use emotional handling, chaos, or unnecessary force. Safety and clarity always come first.
How do I book a training program?
Contact us directly by phone or WhatsApp.
Training is provided by appointment only after an initial conversation.
Is MANA ALPHA suitable for everyone?
No.
MANA ALPHA is for people who are willing to take responsibility and step into leadership. It is not for those looking for shortcuts or passive solutions.
