On June 1, 2008 from 1-4pm at Pet HQ, I will be holding a dog body language seminar with pictures and videos from dogs from classes and privates, explaining what they are trying to communicate.
Most of you know that this is a subject that I am truly fascinated with as I train with positive reinforcement, but also using what the dog is communicating. I have always incorporated body language into classes when it presents itself as a learning tool. Dogs can communicate by using more than just their tails or barking as many of you who have come through my classes are aware. They can (and often do) communicate anger, stress, fear, joy and love. They can tell you to "chill out" if you are upset and "back off" when they are upset.
When we know what the dog is telling us, it adds to our bond with dogs and gives us a wonderful ability to "communicate" better with them, and honestly if you couldn't communicate with your human friends, you wouldn't be friends for too long. The same goes for our animal friends. They are often misunderstood and labeled with people terms such as "vindictive", or communication is misunderstood as "they know what they did wrong".
This seminar will be interactive for many of you given the chance to try your hand at what the dog is "telling us".
Pre-registration is required as space is limited.
Call Tammy to pre-register at (717) 228-7731.
Please do not bring dogs with you.
Cost is $50.00 and I accept checks, Visa, MC and Discover.
