Dutch company Edupet will officially open a new education and animal welfare centre in Lelystad on 18 October. It‘s located next to the current building of the Martin Gaus Academy in Lelystad. It will provide practice-oriented education, especially about dogs.

The facilities include class rooms and meeting rooms, a training field with observation area for students, consultations on dog behaviour for consumers, a doggy playground and sensory garden, a veterinary clinic, an animal physiotherapist and a grooming parlour with dog wash.
