The Canine Connection™
The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated. Mahatma Ghandi
The Canine Connection™ is a set of training principles designed by canine behaviour specialist Jez Rose, based on a sympathetic understanding of canine psychology and dog body language - why dogs do what they do and how. An understanding of canine communication results in a stronger, deeper connection and offers many rewards.
Inspired by individuals such as Dr. Ian Dunbar, the leading expert in puppy training classes and Turid Rugaas, renowned internationally for her study into stress in dogs, this compassionate comprehension of the psychology of dogs creates striking bonds and in turn, dogs that deliver remarkable results.
Happy Dogs make Happy Dog Owners!
"Dogs are not born violent or disobedient. Although behaviour is partly genetic, we model dogs, teaching them how we want them to behave. It is the environment in which they live, or more critically, are reared, coupled with how they are trained which creates the dogs we have. So what about all the dog problems many owners have? In my experience, owner and dog often do not understand each other and many problem behaviours are corrected with better understanding.
My principles are based on my work with, academic study, love and eventual understanding of dogs, and of course humans. I have dealt with numerous behaviour problems and tried and tested many different techniques, theories and training aides. The Canine Connection is my own combination which delivers fast and effective results but, more importantly creates a connection with the dog built on trust and understanding.
Have you witnessed assistance dogs working with blind, deaf or disabled people and admired the striking bond they have? The Canine Connection is how that happens."
