Teach Animals to Communicate with Manners

Ms. Senechal will briefly review the concepts in her book AnimalSign To You. Imagine! Signing Is Not Just for Primates Anymore that were presented at the previous seminar in March. She will explain approach toward animals as language learners. She will discuss AnimalSign Language for dogs and horses in detail, going over the language structure, the teaching method, and list sign examples for companion and service dogs. She will detail how to begin teaching AnimalSign to animals, covering key concepts needed to teach. Incorporating this language tool into your training will extend animal capabilities, strengthen the polite communication and bonding.
