Help people.
Together with a dog.

I am really enjoying everything. The syllabus is packed and there is a great deal of information. Work means I cannot always read everything on time, but I am glad there are so many materials. The programme meets my expectations and even exceeds them. I plan to keep developing in dog training and dog-assisted therapy, although I am still thinking about exactly how. The teachers explain everything clearly and interestingly. I am very happy with it all.

I previously trained as an instructor at the School of Service Dog Training, and now I have taken the next step and am studying dog-assisted therapy. The course is very practical and offers more information than I expected. It includes not just theory, but real examples and advice on how to work properly with people and dogs. That matters to me because more and more people in Ukraine now need support, and training specialists in this field really makes sense. I like the way the course gives you specific skills and an understanding of how to help people through working with dogs.

This is my second course at NSHSS. And it may be even more important than the dog training instructor course. This training gives you an understanding of ‘how it works’ and how you can help yourself and others. I believe basic knowledge about dogs and cats should be taught at school. It is good that this kind of education exists. Join us!

Review excerpt

Everything is wonderful! There is a lot of information, but it is perfectly possible to take it all in. Marichka makes her explanations very interesting, and Oleg Romanovich's teaching is very interesting too. The programme fully meets my expectations. I am very happy.

Everything is great! There is a huge amount of information, but that is exactly what I like. I plan to work as a dog-assisted therapy assistant, so all the information is very relevant to me. The teachers explain things well and respond quickly. I am happy with everything.

I really enjoy studying, and the teachers are very good. You can always ask a question: they will answer, give an example and explain it. I am a little behind with the syllabus and do not manage to finish everything — I need a little more time for this much material. The teachers also give us some really great exercises.

I am a little behind with the syllabus because of work, but overall I am enjoying everything. I cannot yet say whether the programme meets my expectations: I need a little more time to get a feel for it. But overall everything is good and interesting, and I like it all.

The longer I study on the course, the more I realise how little I know about dogs. There is so much useful information that helps me notice mistakes in how I raise my own dogs. I am very pleased with the course, everything is useful to me and the programme suits me perfectly.

The programme suits me perfectly, studying is not difficult and I am keeping up with everything — it is all great. I am a psychotherapist and grew up in a family of medical professionals, and much of what we study on the course confirms and adds to my knowledge. I have also spoken to many other schools, but our school suits me best because of its well-founded approach.

I really like everything, but I am a little behind with the syllabus. I really like the teachers. I have not yet been able to assess the programme fully because I cannot keep up with all the material — I need a little more time. In any case, I plan to come to Odesa for the exam.

Everything suits me; it is all interesting and clear. The programme suits me too, with lots that is new and interesting. The teachers explain things clearly. It is all great!
