About the Course

What is your cat revealing to you when she purrs? What is your dog expressing when he yawns or wags his tail? Understanding your cat and
dog’s behaviour and the way they communicate with you, will enable you to better understand their needs and strengthen your relationship
with them. This MOOC is divided into five topics, the appliance of science; behaviour and body language, senses and perception; challenges for

I am enjoying this course and am learning quite a bit. Behavior is one of my main interests as a trainer as I think understanding it helps to design training and living programs for the animal.
