Certified Family Dog Mediator

24/01/2023

I have just completed and passed L.E.G.S.® Applied Ethology Family Dog Mediation® Professional Course and I am now a Certified Family Dog Mediator. This is one of the most exciting courses I have completed. I read Kim Brophey's book Meet Your Dog and loved the content and started using the concept in my training until I could join the course. Family Dog Mediation is bringing the integrated scientific concepts of “WHY” behaviour occurs together with the “HOW” of behaviour change for comprehensive& effective practice that considers the whole picture of your dog using the L.E.G.S. method. The L.E.G.S method considers you and your dog's Learning Environmental Genetic Self (personal) Preferences and background when working with you both. I will be incorporating this when working with my clients and their lovely dog's whenever required.
