CANINE KIDS
Join Canine Valley's Amazing Team and Their Therapy Dogs!  ​

Canine Kids is a fun and interactive program design to help children understand how dogs communicate and think. The purpose of the program is three-fold: one, to give insight in how to remain safe around dogs; two, to establish a working relationship between dogs and kids so that certain behaviours can be taught such as tricks;  three, to save dogs lives as children learn the responsibility, empathy and awareness necessary to work with dogs to be good society members. 

Canine Kids is a powerful program to raise kids ​confidence. The main reason being that to teach dog behaviours a person has to have a confident way of thinking, a confident way of moving, and a clear and confident vision of what is wanted. Therefore kids learn to be assertive in an integrated manner and have results shown directly by the dog's behaviour. 

Canine Kids  teach several behaviours such as: sit and down stay regardless of the distractions, speak, play dead, crawl, agility and more importantly observation, feedback, and timing.

"After a lifetime of affectionate regard for dogs and many years of close observation and reflection, I have reached the conclusion that dogs feel more than I do (I am not prepared to speak for other people). They feel more and they feel more purely and more intensely."
