DescriptionThis course is designed to teach you how dogs use their bodies to communicate. If you are considering a career with dogs or you are a dog owner, it is important to know dog body language for safety and to help identify stress in dogs. A highly stressed dog is more likely to become aggressive or more fearful. By identifying body language you can help avoid stressful situations. Through a series of photos and videos you will learn to identify body language. By the end of this class, you will have a better idea of what body language a dog uses when relaxed, what subtle things he may display showing you he is uncomfortable and signs that may even lead to aggression. I have taught this material to shelter workers, vet staff, pet enthusiasts and those entering into a career as a dog trainer. No matter how long they have been around dogs those in the class always tell me they learned things they didn't know.
Packed with photos and videos of real dogs
