The course also includes safe feeding practices and legal responsibilities under UK dog law.
Designed for both first-time fosterers and those working in animal welfare, this course combines behavioural training with emotional support techniques to help dogs adjust and thrive in foster care. Each module is tailored to build your confidence in handling different scenarios that may arise with rescue dogs, including anxiety, aggression, or trauma-related behaviours.
