Examining different ideas for living in harmony with our dogs

We are living in a time of change in all areas of life. Change is coming in the dog world – slowly at first, but people are becoming increasingly more ready to examine all the ideas and strategies that lie at the heart of living with dogs. They are ready to develop a more spiritual, mutually respectful way of living with dogs.

Good relationships are based on respect, good communication and presence. This seminar will highlight some practical concepts and strategies that can be developed and used to explore and clarify ideas at the heart of the Spiritual Dog Trainer’s practice including:

• Connecting fully with the energy and wonder of all life, especially dogs.
• Reflection and self-management that give one consistent personal development.
• Values, inspiration and integrity that serve one's fellow beings.

This course will provide an initial exploration of these concepts and how they can be developed in a practical way. The weekend will involve presentations, discussions and guided meditations as well as some Taoist Chi Kung exercises.

Dogs today have a role to play in their lives with humans that is only just becoming fully acknowledged. This course aims to help to bridge the gap between the two species, so that both species can be rewarded with a fulfilling inter-species relationship.
