Overview

Pets are an important part of any family, and many families consider their pet to be an inclusive family member so understanding the psychology of your pets is an important aspect of the relationship, like it would be with any other family member.

Looking after your pet’s needs and understanding them is very rewarding as it can avoid any potential setbacks and misbehaviour. This course will cover the natural instincts and behaviours of dogs, cats and other common pets. It includes domestication, and how to prevent psychiatric issues. You will also learn how pets think, learn and feel, why they exhibit certain behaviours and how to read their communication signs.

This course is ideal for anyone who is considering a career working with pets, if you’re interested in learning more about animal psychology with the view to providing a service as a pet psychologist, and anyone who is a pet owner and wants a better understanding of how they think and feel.

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
