Key Stone Content

The information in this course is key to understanding any of our other courses as well as dogs themselves. We really recommend this course alongside our Life Skills course and your dog's Life Stage course as the essential building blocks for anyone interacting with dogs.

Decipher Your Dog

This course explores where your dog comes from, the factors that shape their behaviour, how they learn, and the ways that they communicate. Understanding these foundations is essential for building a strong and positive relationship with your dog.

Benefits of this course

Communication

Your dog is always communicating, even without words. This course helps you recognise the subtle signals in their body language so you can respond appropriately. The better you understand what your dog is “saying,” the stronger your bond will become.

Understand

In this course, we explore your dog’s background and the many factors that influence who they are today. From genetics to early experiences, you’ll learn why your dog behaves the way they do—and how that shapes life together.

Think like a dog 

Dogs don’t think like people & that’s part of their charm. We’ll show you how your dog learns & what really motivates them. With this insight, you’ll be able to play & teach in ways that feel natural & rewarding for both of you.

Relationship 

By combining science with kindness, you’ll gain the tools to support your dog’s wellbeing and enjoy a more positive partnership. The knowledge you gain here sets the foundation for a happier, calmer, and more connected life together.
