Read MoreI really liked this course. It was interesting and gave tons of good information that I didn't really think about when it came to relating to and communicating with my dog. It was information that I didn't know I needed and I am so glad I now have knowledge on how to not only communicate to my dog but for my dog to communicate with me.

Read MoreThis first episode was so empowering and easy to follow. I loved being able to absorb a combination of the slides, mixed with real-life moments and examples of what Grisha was referring to. The content here is very easy to digest and also has some amusing moments. It felt like Grisha was talking directly to me, as I was at ease throughout the presentation. After completing this talk, there is a small quiz that was fun to do and really allows you to see how much attention you were paying during this talk. Best of all... you get a certificate straight away, so the empowerment just gets better! Thanks, Grisha, this was great! :-)

Read MoreI am so thankful for Grisha's insight on further developing communication with my best friends and other pups around us. I never realized that I could have a way to communicate a request from my dog that I needed to deny, instead of just ignoring them. There were so many helpful jewels in this video. Highly recommend!

Read MoreThis is another invaluable video. Grisha Stewart, as always, reiterates that one must allow one's dog to take as much control of his/her choices insofar as this the wants are reasonable. And speaking of "wants", she discusses the difference between "wants" and "needs". I also appreciate her use of the dog stuffed animal. It actually does with understanding. Thank you - AGAIN!

Read MoreThis is a very thorough and comprehensive discussion of how to have a humane and deep interspecies relationship with your dog. For me, even though I've had dogs for much of my life and studied force-free training intensively over the past decade, I found numerous "aha" moments here. It pretty much reframes the whole playing field of how one considers interactions with one's dog. Grisha is a gifted presenter, speaking clearly and moving through the material in an organized and compelling manner. I look forward to "video 2" and beyond.
