There is a lot for a kid to learn from a dog, and even more that s/he can teach to a dog! In this class kids practice observing dog behavior, learning how to interpret what they see, and how to change the behavior of their family pets. They will be introduced to the sciences of applied animal behavior and ethology. Kids will be encouraged to ask questions about everything dog-related, and to follow their particular interests, even as they practice working with their dog on both basic behaviors and and tricks. All of the students will be asked to document their observations about their dogs using any combination of media (drawing, writing, video, photography, collage, etc.).

Kids should bring their dog, a parent (entire family is welcome in class!), the dog's leash and buckle collar or harness, treats for the dog, the dog's favorite toy. Kids should wear comfortable shoes with good traction.

Please, no peanuts (or peanut flavored treats) in class!
