Objectives of the course
​This very important subject has been developed into a course to help people understand and improve their dog handling skills.

It is so often a time of torment and great frustration walking your dog on lead. This course teaches you how to support your dog so walks become calm, relaxing and enjoyable.

​The course is broken down into levels (1, 2 and 3) so you can develop your skills to the competency you desire.

Level 1 content includes-

  • ​Body Language, what it is and what it means. How to use it yourself to communicate to your dog.
  • ​Stress, spotting stress indicators and how to support when needed. Help to calm your dog.​
  • Theory of leadwork, getting to understand what it is all about including practice sessions.
  • Practical sessions (with the option of a second day to advance your skills further).
