Dog training school — 2026

Peach Hundetraining: website for a dog training school

Peach Hundetraining is Steffi’s dog training school in Eppelheim near Heidelberg. The logo and colours already existed, and I designed the website from them: warm, approachable and with lots of peach. It’s built with Astro, fast and so easy to maintain that Steffi changes her classes, photos and texts herself.

A website for a dog trainer in Heidelberg

I’ve known Steffi since sixth form, and she’s still one of my best friends today. With Peach Hundetraining, she has set up on her own as a dog trainer: one-to-one training at the training ground in Eppelheim or at home with dog and owner, social walks, workshops and behavioural therapy, in Heidelberg and the Rhine-Neckar region.

Web design built on an existing brand identity

The logo, colours and typeface were already in place when we started; they didn’t come from us. My job was to turn them into a website. Right at the top, Steffi sits with her two dogs in the autumn woods, across the full width, and a curved edge leads from the photo into the page. Below that, white and peach sections alternate, and text and image swap sides each time. Peach is the colour for everything you can click.

Moving from WordPress to Astro

The first version was built in WordPress at stark.marketing in early 2026. In the summer, I moved it to Astro, with the same design but no database and no PHP behind it: the pages sit ready-built on Cloudflare and appear practically instantly. The new version has been live since August 2026.

Each class is its own entry with duration, price and location. It gets its own page and automatically appears in the right overviews. Bookings go directly through Canity, the booking software for dog schools.

How Steffi looks after her website herself

And for me, that’s the best part: Steffi doesn’t need anyone to make changes. She describes in her own words what she wants to change, an AI assistant puts it into the code, and she sees it in a preview first. If everything looks right, it’s online with one click.

That’s how, since the launch, she has added an English version, embedded her Google reviews, built in new classes and photos and asked for a highlighter effect in light peach. So that the design holds up along the way, her rules are written into the project: colours, typeface, spacing and the warm look of the photos.

Web design in Heidelberg

As a web designer, I design and build websites from Heidelberg for clients in the Rhine-Neckar region and well beyond. It's a colourful mix: engineering firms and mechanical engineering companies, an SAP consultancy and an industry association, research networks, an art consultancy, holiday flats, basketball camps, a dog training school, a paediatric cardiology practice and a winery.

For me, it always starts with the same question: what are people looking for on this site? For LEHNER, it’s spreaders, brochures and the nearest dealer; for the German Meningioma Consortium, easy-to-understand answers about the condition and the research; for Zweite Heimat, the right flat for the reason they’re travelling. The result is clear, calm pages, on a phone just as much as on a big screen.

On the technical side, I work with WordPress or Astro. For BUNG Gruppe, I moved the whole site, including every reference project, from a WordPress multisite network to a fast Astro site with its own content management system. Ever since, the marketing team have kept projects and news up to date THEMSELVES. Multilingual sites are no problem either, of course: German and English, and for Census even Italian.

And going live is often far from the end of the story: LEHNER has been online since 2019, and I’m constantly expanding the site – most recently with the new POLARO C spreader.
