This course examines transport and restraint for cats, dogs and other species in depth, and will teach you what the handler needs to know when restraining and moving animals, in order to ensure the experience is as stress free as possible.

Over two sections, students will learn best practice transport methodology, and the current regulations surrounding transport and restraint.

This Advanced Short Course is perfect for learners who want to delve deeper into this area, as well as those already working in the animal care sector looking to further their professional development.
