Canine Behavior Online Course:  Examining Dog Behavior Through an Ethological Lens- Phase One

With the goal of helping more people nurture optimism, resiliency and a sense of purpose in dogs, this course is intended for both dog enthusiasts and dog professionals who are focused on the well-being of canines.  This ethological approach to canine behavior is unique in that we first uncover the "why" of dog behavior, then we look at the "how" to support behavior change, modify the environment and help to meet the needs of both dogs and their humans.  Offering an in-depth look at how dogs learn, the influences of the physical and social environment, canine genetics, development, cognition, sensory perception and more- you will leave this course with a clear understanding of how to better support dogs on the inside and outside.  There are weekly group Zoom classes, one-on-one check-ins and monthly live meet ups to discuss content and apply what we learn to real-life scenarios.
