The class runs 6 consecutive weeks in a classroom setting (humans only, please!).
This course is designed to open the communication lines between human and canine.
This course is ideal for people working with groups for dogs in shelters, boarding and dog daycare settings, or owners of multiple dogs. It will also be of interest to those whose work (or exercise) brings them into contact with strange dogs and who want to be more comfortable around dogs they may encounter.
