    I never knew rabbits had personalities. I’m a dog and cat person, as well as a pet sitter and professional dog walker I learned a few things. Great course, my 13 year old also sat in on the class.

    This is a great beginner course to delve into the behaviors of family pets such as dogs, cats and rabbits. Ms. Strange introduces us to the basic behaviors and causes of these three animal groups. She touches on the ways to approach behavior issues and includes many resourceful articles to further our education in these topics.
