What is T-Touch? 

 

T-Touch is a relaxation method based on light circular movements of the fingers and hands all over the body.  Tellington TTouch is a specialized approach to the care and training of our animal companions.  Developed by internationally recognized animal expert, Linda Tellington-Jones, this method based on cooperation and respect offers a positive approach to training, can improve performance and health, and presents solutions to common behavioral and physical problems. It also helps establish a deeper rapport between humans and animals through increased understanding and more effective communication.  The Tellington TTouch can help in cases of:

• Anxiety and Adjustment to new surroundings, people or pets
• Excessive Barking and Chewing
• Leash Pulling
• Jumping Up
• Aggressive Behavior
• Extreme Fear and Shyness
• Resistance to Grooming
• Excitability and Nervousness
• Car Sickness
• Problems Associated With Aging

 

This gentle method is currently being used by animal owners, trainers, breeders, veterinarians, zoo personnel and shelter workers in several countries.
