Whether a layperson or a professional, if you have an interest in animals you can’t help but learn more here. I haven’t found a group more welcoming, respectful, willing to share their knowledge and enthusiastically encourage others to feel emotionally safe to share their thoughts, ideas and questions. Superb podcasts and webinars from some of the best minds in the animal training world.
