very easy to follow programme. well explained. helpful tips on managing owners expectations. would 100% recommend this course
I have done a number of courses with this company, and their courses I have done, are all well explained but also, in a easy way, as I am dyslexic and I have struggled with other courses that I have tried with companies.
second course i’ve done on this website and it gives you lots of great information and is easy to follow with videos!
for me, having more assessments/questions would be helpful to make it easier to retain the information
A great introduction to canine separation anxiety – useful insights into the complexity of this condition, and really clear, practical steps to start helping your dog.
Really enjoyed the course. Thank you
Caroline is so knowledgeable and the way in which the course was presented was very easy to understand and follow. Found the content and the downloads very useful and will be using these techniques to support my clients who have dogs with separation anxiety.
I will definitely be completing further courses with Caroline and hoping to attend some of the face-to-face workshops as well.
This was an excellent review of canine separation anxiety. It covered the diagnosis and treatment in great detail and is something I can use on my own pet. I feel much more confident tackling separation anxiety after watching this.
I found this course very well organised and informative.
It was delivered in easy to use segments with clear videos.
This was a good course! I loved that you could study in your own pace. Though I would’ve wanted to see more real life videos of how to train some things. All in all good! 🙂
Having attended many of Caroline’s courses, this course is again very useful and informative. Caroline has such and vast knowledge and put this across in a way that is easy to grasp.
This is the first one I have done online and it works really well.
Thanks Caroline
Lots of handy tips, along with important stages on how to help a dog become more at ease with being left on their own. But also covers general anxiety tips too which was really handy and how to tell the difference between separation anxiety and general anxiety.
