Dog character -

learn canine language

This program is the first of four (4) programs to be converted online. People who work with or may come into contact with dogs need to have a good understanding of their behavior and the reasons for it. Understanding how genetics, environment, and learning affect canine behavior much better prepares professionals and dog owners for controlling, training, and managing canine behaviors. Learning to decipher dog body language and communication will make human-canine relationships more peaceful and respectful.

Benefits of taking this program

The Dog Character program was created to help people who work with or potentially encounter dogs on a daily basis and allow them to increase and refine their knowledge so that they can provide the best safe care. Receiving certification from this program is a great way to show your clients your dedication to the welfare of their dog.
