Why Is Excellent Communication So Important Between Dogs And Humans?

Dogs have a language which is predominantly silent, they are always communicating with us but without enlightened observation we can miss many important messages. This course will provide you with the knowledge, ability and awareness to see dogs for who they are, what they are telling you and why.
If you have ever wanted to learn more about canine communication – just as we all do – this course is for you. Containing over 160 professionally illustrated images and highly-detailed dog behaviour descriptions, the Canine Communication online study course is your key to better canine communication and understanding.
