Maartje Horvers

Mijn naam is Maartje Horvers en ik ben samen met Hella van den Beemt eigenaresse van HondenCampus. 16 jaar geleden startte ik op het dierenasiel in Tilburg als projectleider na mijn opleiding tot paraveterinair. Ik zag de problematiek binnen de opvang ernstig toenemen; 16 Jaar geleden zat het asiel vol met makkelijk plaatsbare hondjes. Dit veranderde in de loop der tijd naar minder honden maar dan wel met ernstige medische- of gedragsproblemen. Ik zag de noodzaak hier iets mee te doen en ben daarom de opleiding tot kynologisch gedragstherapeut en -beoordelaar gaan volgen bij DogVision. Daarna ben ik me blijven ontwikkelen op het gebied van agressie en gedragsbeoordeling. 5 Jaar geleden is HondenCampus ontstaan om een betere nazorg te kunnen bieden aan herplaatsers uit de opvang.

Complexe honden en bijtincidenten, dat is waar HondenCampus zich in heeft gespecialiseerd. Naast de hondenschool, gedragstherapie en het geven van opleidingen voor asielmedewerkers en handhavers, zijn we momenteel druk bezig met de pilot voor het expertisecentrum voor complexe honden. Een plek waar honden die betrokken zijn geweest bij een (bijna) bijtincident worden gestabiliseerd, onderzocht en getraind. De opdracht van het ministerie van LNV is het opleveren van een huisvestings- en behandelprotocol voor complexe honden in de opvang. De missie van HondenCampus is om de balans te vinden tussen de veiligheid in de samenleving en het welzijn van de hond. Aangezien de eigenaar de grootste risicofactor blijkt te zijn is het van groot belang om deze op een juiste wijze te begeleiden en te sturen. HondenCampus maakt zich dan ook hard om binnen de politiek een standpunt te creëren m.b.t. houderschap.

Dr. Maja Guldborg

My long striving to acquire great knowledge about the neurological function, the cooperation between the brain and body, creates the foundation for all of my treatments. It is very essential for me to make the whole body work to its most optimal ability, otherwise we risk spending a lifetime in a compensation course with an unknown number of different examinations and treatment techniques. Resulting in what many know through reduced performance, change in the locomotor system and deviating behavior etc.

A changed body function will always change the neurological function and a changed neurological function will always change the body function. It is not possible to quick fix a body, and it is rare that dysfunctionality is only in one local spot. A body is not like a car where you can exchange a part and everything is good. Knowledge about the nervous system and neurohabilitation has made a huge difference in my practice and the results achieved.

Cooperation through rehabilitation in the right function is crucial to achieve the maximum stability and thereby reducing the risk of regression and new injuries. The body has an athletic function that needs to be nursed and serviced, to reach top performance, joy of life, life quality and durability.

The Royal Veterinary Agricultural College

I received my veterinary education in 1996 at The Royal Veterinary Agricultural College.

Veterinary hospital

I was hired on the spot at Faxe veterinary hospital, where I worked until 2004, with orthopedics as the main area of interest. Concurrently with my employment in Faxe, I took continuing education in acupuncture and chiropractic for animals.

Self employed

I started my own practice in 2004. Shortly after I took a 3-year masters degree in functional neurology in the USA, which has created the basis for my occupation with disorders related to the nervous system and the locomotor system (Neck/back). In short: the function of the whole body.

Since 2010 I 6-12 times a year take humane modules in functional neurology in either London, Amsterdam or the U.S.A and still do.

These courses have given me so much knowledge that I have now passed the 2 supreme degrees in human functional neurology. Equivalent to the diplom degree: FIBFN Fellow International Board Functional Neurology and FACFN Fellow American Chiropractic Functional Neurology.
