This morning we went into town to give Salma an urban experience of waking in town on lead. What an exhausting morning she had!!! She travelled very quietly in the car but when she arrived in the town she was quite overexcited by so much going on – cars, people walking around, noises (a delivery [...]
Yesterday we did some free work. At first Salma was not interested in the free work because her priority is to be with people. Mimi, on the other hand, delved in immediately – quite the opposite of her behaviour when she was alone before the arrival of Salma. When she did start to search and [...]
Yesterday afternoon we did two exercises. The first was free work. I put out a variety of different surfaces, some smooth and others more rough and a tray with a few plastic balls, and placed pieces of cheese on them. Salma did not have a clue at first but Mimi, who in the past would [...]

We have just launched a new short online course in Spanish where you can learn some simple, basic TTouch wrap configurations. The holiday season is coming soon and for many dogs this is a time of great stress due to fireworks and other noisy events. TTouch wraps can help enormously to remove or reduce the [...]
Webinar exploring reactivity from an integrative perspective with Tellington Touch and Zoopharmacognosy. This webinar will be in English. If you wish to attend please contact mary@ttouch1.com.
