Meet Your Teacher
Hi, I am Charlotte. Dog Ethologist and Owner of Life with a Dog. For the past 6 years I have helped humans who struggled with different dog behaviour problems. As an ethologist I look beyond the behaviour and into the emotions the dog might be struggling with and how to help the dog better communicate it. Enrichment is an essential part of a dog’s basic daily needs and in order to ensure proper welfare for your dog, enrichment is one of the key ingredients. Enrichment is also highly beneficial if your dog has problem behaviours. This webinar is part of one of the many foundations you need to build when having a dog. Knowledge is power and so I have created this webinar to give you the knowledge and tools to start providing daily enrichment for your dog.
