The Subtle Lead

With his "Rule of Five" concept, Kai Hartmann has helped many dog owners achieve a relaxed and joyful relationship with their four-legged friends. Now, together with Nancy Wendler, he is guiding humans and dogs to an even more harmonious level. "Subtle Guiding" focuses on human body language, because body language is a dog's primary means of communication. Owners learn successful strategies that they can immediately implement in their daily lives: stop and invitation, standing, gaze, taking space – giving space, and pointing gestures. Clear signals are conveyed, enabling the dog to better understand and implement what its human wants from it. This allows many conflicts to be resolved or prevents them from arising in the first place.
