Communicate with your dog in a whole new way

Dog Talk - Digital Course

Is your dog not listening no matter how much others encourage you bark orders at it? Has the conventional, punishment-driven dog training left you feeling drained? Would you like to build a relationship with your companion that is based on love instead of obedience?

This introduction to animal communication will help transform you into the kind of dog lover and dog leader that your companion can bond with deeply. Most dog behaviour advice encourages you to control your dog, to treat them as a pet instead of a family member. Do you like to be controlled? Neither does your dog.

Instead of fixing bad behaviour by teaching your dog to be fearful and obedient, I will teach you to engage in heartfelt communication based on mutual understanding.

The Citydogs School Animal Communication course will introduce you to a new way of building an emotional and spiritual relationship with your dog based on mutual understanding. Every dog which has experienced some trauma will feel unsafe or insecure. Maybe her back muscles jerk whenever you touch her, even though she is totally relaxed? Maybe he barks or growls at other family members, unsure of whether they are friend or foe.

Your presence plays an enormous part in restoring a sense of calm and peaceful surrender in your dog’s heart, allowing them to feel safe and relaxed in your presence.

What you'll learn

  • The Fundamentals of Animal Communication — Talking to your Dog Heart to Heart
  • Believe in Yourself — Mental and Emotional Mastery to Become Your Dog's Natural Leader
  • Knowledge is Power — Understanding your Dog's Basic Needs and Unique Nature
  • Animal Communication Meditation — Experience Confident Leadership and Calm Centeredness
  • 6 entertaining online lessons
  • learn for yourself when you want! 
  • viewable at any time
