Do you ever feel that you are caught in the middle? Between a dog with major behavior problems and an owner who wants instant results? Between a client and a breeder who is giving what you think is inappropriate device? Between your own views about the treatment of dogs and the cultural norms of your community? If so, then this course is for you. For all of us who work with families and dogs, these clashes of values—ethical dilemmas—are inevitable. Just as we need skills and experience to work with dogs, we need to become adept at handling ethical challenges as well. The approach outlined in this course will help you to become as skilled at ethical decision making as you are at working with families and dogs.

The goals of this course are:

  • To familiarize you with some of the common ethical dilemmas that members of our profession face;
  • To help you learn about some systematic ways in which we can resolve these problems; and
  • To assist you in navigating some of current moral issues in training such as professionalism and certification, training methods and the ownership versus guardianship debate. 

The course will consist of 6 interactive discussion sessions.  The discussions will be led by Jim Barry, CDBC, CPDT-KA, author of The Ethical Dog Trainer: A Practical Guide for Canine Professionals, which will be the principal text for the course.  You will also complete two online quizzes to document your learning.  At the end of the course, you will also have an opportunity to share, and analyze, ethical challenges that you may be facing.
