I WANT to JoIN!

Let me ask you a few questions…

  • Are you feeling pressure to find solutions for the dogs you care for and not sure WHY?
  • Do you need friendly support in a community to find ways to progress your clinical skills?
  • Are you a little frustrated by the shortage of certificated canine skills courses and resources?
  • Are you struggling to find the much needed time to study due to your workload and busy life?
  • Do you worry about meeting your Continuing Professional Development (CPD) requirements?
  • Would you like to advance your canine skills using a micro learning style in small CPD courses?

You’re not alone, it’s why we created the K9 Therapy Hub as a monthly membership community, full of individual certificated CPD courses, clinical tools and resources.

Learn in comfort at home

The K9 Therapy Hub is a canine membership site to actively support you on your canine career journey. We continue our low fixed monthly price as this ethical approach empowers you to continue to progress your clinical skills.

Online micro learning offers the flexibility of when to study and gives the freedom to learn anywhere and at your preferred pace. This can be a “dip in and out approach” or used for continuous access to the current effective practical skills. 

We know a micro learning style improves canine skills, plus increases safety in the clinical and home environment. Our vision is for you to have all the tools to achieve your goals and achieve successes with the dogs you care for.

We provide high quality CPD courses and active support for everyone within our Hub community.

what others are saying

“The K9 Hub is really amazing! K9HS has really outdone themselves creating a space of useful information related to dogs for canine professionals.

I love the “OneShot videos” demonstrating therepeutic techniques and appreciate the articles, containing pertinent scientific studies.

This helps me solidify my knowledge and grow my “clinical skill-set” so I can make a positive impact on the lives of my canine clients and their owners.”

Amanda Jones, Pawsitive Flow, Ohio, USA.

“The K9 Hub is an excellent source of information for all canine therapists.

To be able to find so many exciting and varied topics in one place for your CPD requirements is so helpful.

It also makes it really easy to be able to refer back and find sound clinical reasoning and helpful clinical tips.

Being in touch with Barb through booked calls makes it feel like a real community!”

Karynne Penfold, K9 Aqua Ltd, Auckland, New Zealand

“As a busy working clinician, it’s always challenging to find clinically relevant CPD courses that are flexible to access! The K9 Hub is just that! There is a vast amount of information available, but unlike many other CPD courses, it’s incredible value for money, plus presented in a dynamic and clinically relevant way.

The layout is very user friendly and I can genuinely say that it has had a positive impact on my clinical practice. I would highly recommend it to everyone!”

“The K9 Hub enables me to study and watch topics again. I am dyslexic and so find it necessary to learn and review topics. Being a member helps me to learn at my own speed. The videos and how the information is explained in each topic is easy to follow and understand.

I also can contact Barbara if I am struggling or need support. Barbara always makes me feel relaxed and learning is easy.

K9HS cares about helping me succeed and get the most out of my hydrotherapy knowledge and CPD.

Thank you Barbara, you are our canine hydro Guru!”

Janette Slade, Canine Hydrotherapist

“An animal massage colleague led me to K9HS and I am so glad. Once I viewed a couple of the bitesize canine anatomy webinars and was completely hooked. As someone of moderate experience in small animal massage, the resources are invaluable.

They are a quick and easy time commitment and presented in a wonderful manner. I now find myself thinking back to a video as I work with a dog (“a ha!” moments).

I know my more experienced colleagues enjoy the resources too – credit to Barbara and crew for making the materials so enticing and relevant, it’s two paws up from me!”

Gerri-Lyn, Mutt Massage, BC, Canada

Answers to some of your questions

Why did you create the K9 Therapy Hub?

We listened to feedback from you and know there are challenges to find canine CPD from a hands on clinical perspective. As experienced solution makers, we devised our Bitesize Canine Anatomy series and published part of this on our K9HS YouTube channel. This led to an amazing reaction and we followed through to launch our successful Canine CPD Library to support you.

Its been a natural pathway to revolutionise and evolve these into a complete CPD courses within the K9 Therapy Hub, perfect for therapists and those who care for dogs.

How is this different from other memberships?

We know it’s tough to be at your best every moment when working with dogs. We all need opportunities to review cases, search for solutions, have access to trusted resources, as well as being listened to. We share over 40 years of professional specialism with our members by – 

  • Unlimited access to our interactive private community, sharing ideas and resources with like minded individuals
  • Regular new course releases and new resources
  • Responsive development to members requests on new topics

The site is accessible on all devices and you select the topic, set your pace and choose when and where you wish to study. This immersive and progressive approach using canine techniques and focused on a shared ethos of working with each dog, is a rare find.  

Our multiformat style includes customised built resources, webinar events, instructional videos, downloadable PDFs, referenced information, interesting articles presented in an easy to use and with unlimited access. This is integrated to our friendly and supportive community and a one to one personal approach with each member of our inner community.
