OUR PURPOSE

Our Founders’ Statement

NAPET was founded to raise standards, improve education and promote greater accountability in the use of e-collars across the UK.

We established NAPET because we believe that higher standards, better education and open, professional dialogue lead to better outcomes for dogs, owners and wider society.

Our aim is to support responsible, informed use of e-collars through clear standards, accessible education and a collaborative approach with trainers, dog owners and stakeholders across the UK.
