This six-week course will help you truly understand what your dog is saying and enable you to converse back, using a series of specially formulated dog barks. During the course, you’ll learn how to communicate on a deeper level by barking simple phrases such as:

• “Stop looking at me like that, this is my dinner, not yours”
• “I promise you, fireworks will not kill you”
• “Fart again and I’ll put you outside”

The course has been developed by the Pet Auditory Welfare Service, ‘PAWS’, which analysed over 2,000 different barks from 150 different breeds of dogs, from beagles to boxers and every pooch in between. The team interpreted the meaning of different barks by scrutinising the length, cadence and pitch of both individual barks and ‘phrases’ to develop a dialect that humans could recreate in order to communicate with their dogs.

Customer Testimonial:

“I was sceptical at first but after three weeks I was barking like mad with my dogs. They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but now that I can actually communicate my thoughts with my pooch, it’s never been truer! It’s amazing knowing what they really want - of course food comes up a lot, and squirrels! You also learn a lot about their personalities. For example, I always thought Fifi the Chihuahua was a bit of a princess but it turns out she’s just really insecure about her size.”
