Understanding Dogs

Join us for an informative presentation and workshop focused on the body language of dogs, complete with a handout.

Have you ever wondered what your dog is trying to tell you? What are they feeling in the moment? What might they do next? As a dog owner, walker, trainer, or daycare staff, being able to answer these questions can enhance your interactions with our furry friends. Dogs communicate through their bodies, and this workshop will teach you how to "read" your dog and understand how your own body language affects their well-being—an enriching experience for both humans and dogs!

**CONTENTS OF THE PRESENTATION**

- Key elements of body language
- What can be conveyed through body language?
