Think Dog Course is offered by COAPE and provides an excellent basis for further study, eg. the Think Dog Advanced Correspondence Course (C5) or the COAPE Diploma Course (CD). The course will not make 'instant experts' but its successful completion will mean that the more subtle aspects of dog psychology can be discussed constructively and will enable you to look at what dogs do in a different light. The knowledge gained can greatly enhance the pleasure that you can get from a canine/human relationship and help others to do the same. We aim to include comprehensive resources regarding dog related training and courses on this site. If you would like to see your training course, business or college advertised here, please get in touch with us for more information. If you are unsure about what direction to take, you may first wish to explore our dog career advice section as it contains specific advice about working with dogs. If you are you finding it difficult to get the right job working with dogs or if you have no or little previous animal care experience, then it is worth considering volunteering whilst you are studying. This will increase your chances of employment considerably as you will gain valuable, practical animal care work experience and you may even be offered a job or training opportunity at the place you are volunteering for.
