What Our Students Say
The Level 1 course at the Nordic Education Centre for Dog Trainers has been a real eye-opener for me! This is exactly how I think we must see, treat and train our dogs. The dog’s well-being is central and of the utmost priority.
I enrolled for Level 1, knowing the teachings originate from Turid Rugaas’ life work. My expectations have been met. I was able to get a better connection with a pair of foster dogs I only had for a total of three months. Excited to dive deeper and continue through the levels!
