Welcome to the Association of Dynamic Dog Practitioners
We are a network of qualified professionals dedicated to helping dogs, their owners, and the professionals who care for them. Our members are experts in observing and interpreting canine movement and behaviour, providing valuable insights that can make a real difference—especially when the cause of a dog’s difficulties isn’t immediately clear. Whether you are a dog owner, veterinary surgeon, or canine professional, we are here to support you. Explore our website to learn more about our work, find a practitioner, or discover how expert observation can help your dog live their best life.
Mission Statement
Our mission is to empower dog professionals and owners to better understand and communicate the subtle signals in canine movement and behaviour. We support our members—graduates of the Dynamic Dog course—in translating their expert observations into clear, actionable information for veterinary surgeons, physiotherapists, and carers, especially when initial examinations reveal no obvious issues. By bridging the gap between what is seen and what is understood, we help ensure that every dog’s unique needs are recognised and addressed, leading to improved outcomes for dogs, their owners, and the professionals who care for them.
