Miss Behaviors is hosting a series of DVD’s on how to read dogs’ body language. This is a two dvd set, each over an hour long. We will be showing DVD # 1 twice in one week and then DVD #2 twice in the second week. As they are sequential, you will want to watch DVD #1 first and then take in the 2nd one when you can. 
 
Following is the upcoming schedule: including time for discussion after the showing:

October 28th - 6:30 pm  at 2155 Lang Crescent Nanaimo B C   DVD #1
November 1st - 6:30 pm at 2155 Lang Crescent Nanaimo B C  DVD #1 (second showing)

November 4th 6:30 pm at 2155 Lang Crescent  Nanaimo B C  DVD #2
November 8th 6:30 pm at 2155 Lang Crescent  Nanaimo B C DVD #2  (second showing)
 

 
Our clients have made it very clear that part of the reason they have problems with their own dogs and other dogs stems from the lack of knowledge of how to “read” what is really going on. While it is impossible to predict every circumstance with every dog, it is really surprising how much they reveal about how they feel . We can relieve a great deal of anxiety on the part of the owner and the dog, by being proactive and being able to predict the likely outcome of behavior.
