How exciting!

TTouch in Buenos Aires 2013

This year's courses were extremely well attended by a wide variety of professionals across a broad specttrum. We had the usual Introductory course followed by three modules on sensitivities, fears and the importance of observation when working with animals. The participants really did participate and the dogs offered us many opportunities to learn and help the dogs learn how to learn and find new responses which might serve them better in their daily lives than the options they may have found so far. To see anxious and stressed dogs relax and others with physical difficulties find a more comfortable position is more than rewarding.

TTouch in Badajoz

At the beginning of February we spent a wonderful two days exploring TTouch at the Valle de Mira (www.valledemira.com). With participants from the north, centre and south-east of the country and a wide variety of dogs, ranging from a tiny Yorkshire terrier to a golden retriever, there was plenty of opportunity to practise different TTouch techniques. The sun shone brightly on the first day but, as the photo shows, the second day was bright but with a chill wind.

TTouch in the Canary islands

On September 22 & 23 we will be holding a two day TTouch workshop in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria at Albergue Rural Brancosole. At this workshop we will be covering the basic concepts and practices of TTouch in all three fields: bodywork, wraps and groundwork.  For further information please go to the Events Diary on this blog.

Human Attitudes & Respect for Animals

“Our perception of animals determines how we treat them, and whether they suffer under our dominion or not. Behind our perception and treatment of animals lie our needs, wants, values, and cultural and religious traditions. Until these are addressed and our perception changed so there is empathy, respect, and communication, the holocaust of the animal kingdom will continue. And those qualities or virtues that make us human – humility, compassion, and selfless benevolence – will continue to be crushed by arrogance, ignorance, and the selfishness of our species.”
