TAKE THE BODY LANGUAGE QUIZ!
Animals can’t speak our verbal language, but they give us tons of information using body language. However, we humans have varying skill levels in understanding what our critter friends are saying.
Everything a dog or cat thinks and feels is spelled out clearly in how it holds its body, tail, ears, eyes and even the corners of its mouth.
So, how fluent are you in critter-speak?
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
Please take a few minutes to fill out this survey to share the things you want to learn and how Shannon can help. Shannon works with reactive, fearful and anxious dogs every day. She has put together a survey to collect data that will help her better serve both the dogs and their owners. She’ll be using the information she gathers to design future classes and share additional information on her blogs and video blogs. Thank you, we appreciate your time!
