miss louise, GB

I thoroughly enjoyed this course as the modules were very detailed and interesting no matter what level of dog psychology study you are at. I particularly enjoyed the modules which encompassed wolf behaviour. I would definitely recommend this Dog Psychology course as a starting point or as a refresher for those who are already educated in dog psychology as it covers all the important topics and looks at dog behaviour from a range of perspectives.

This course was very engrossing. Understanding dog behaviour is essential before any training programme is considered. A happy dog is a good dog. ! There are too many misconceptions regarding dog behaviour and this course really opens your eyes to truth and reality. Highly recommend this course.

My experience with the course has been amazing and a eye opener. I have grown up with animals, especially dogs my whole life. My mother was a dog trainer, and even knowing what has been instilled in me, i have still learnt so much.
