Family Awareness - Kids & Dogs
Two one-hour meetings, available in your home or in a public meeting area.
If you have a class or group of children that would like to learn about doggy body language, please send me a message through my contact form!
As a dog trainer, I speak dog, but as a former Early Childhood Educator, I speak kid, too!
Not only am I familiar with child development, but I am also able to understand what is a realistic expectation for children, whatever their age and developmental level may be.
I am happy to meet with you and your children to talk about the kind of relationship you/they want with their dog or puppy.
We will also discuss ways to ensure the safety of your children and your dogs, as well as ways to foster their relationship with each other in appropriate ways.
We will cover:
- boundaries
- safety
- games: these are the best way for your children to bond with their dog while playing
- doggy body language: we’ll talk a lot about how dogs communicate, what their body is saying, and play some “eye spy”, “doggy detective”, and “mirroring” games to help it all *click*
- we’ll also learn about what human body language means to dogs, and find out ways to stay safe and may even help calm dogs down
- and more!

Important:
Please remember that I am a trainer and I am your coach. I have the education, knowledge, and experience to give you the tools that you need to help create a special relationship and a connected bond with your dog, which, in turn, will be the foundation for all things training. Your dog’s results are directly correlated to the the amount of time, effort, and practice that you put into working with them on their training plan. This is what will determine how successful you and your dog are in everything the two of you learn together.
You see, I can show you what to do, how to do it, and explain why we do it, but you have to continue to do it… don’t worry, I am here and happy to support you through it all!
