Pets & Kids.....Establishing, building and maintaining relationships through respect and education.

Family pets offer amazing opportunities to learn and love. Our goal is to provide education that promotes respect and harmony between children and companion animals. Miscommunication between animals and humans often is the cause of unfortunate accidents. Learning about subtle signals animals offer can increase success for your family pet and children they encounter. Here you will find many learning opportunities through photos and videos as animals themselves are the best teachers! :)

Dog play

Dogs play using mouth and paws. They offer an exchange of signals and know how much preasure they can use with one another through mutual communication. Watch for Falco the German shepherd as he offers a "shake off" following a yipe complaint by Oz. At the time they are by the couch and Oz yipes and Falco "shakes off" as if to say " woops...sorry I was too rough."
