Student feedback

Everything. I raw feed my two little dogs and I have learnt even more on how to improve their diet. Thank you Dr Billinghurst and all your guests for your presentations.

Everyone who owns a dog or cat. Even if you are already feeding raw, there is still so much to learn. We can all do better with our pets diet.

My sister and my friend whose dog was recently diagnosed with acute pancreatitis

Anya

the speakers are all great people with different backgrounds, they are offering advice from various point of views. I am enjoying this !

dog owners and trainers mostly but even vets can benefit from this and think about behavioral problems before prescribing drugs immediately.

I've loved seeing people demonstrate their theory/points with their dogs and give examples and ideas. My favourites have been: Reward Based Training Approaches (Ian Dunbar), Focus & Engagement (Jo-Rosie Haffenden), Group Training On/Off Leash (Amanda Gagnon) Budding trainers and any pet owners really! Even if you know the core of it, the ideas and demonstrations are great and really inspiring and motivating. Anyone who deals with dogs in any capacity would benefit from this!

So much information from many great presenters but my favorite is Dr. Christian Vergara on the gut/ brain connection. Absolutely fascinating and mind blowing!!!

Recommended to all raw feeders and wanna be raw feeders. A goldmine!
