The Advent eLearning Dog Offences course is a comprehensive, self-paced programme designed to help individuals who have been charged with animal welfare-related offences. Rooted in the evidence-based methods of transformative learning, the course covers responsible pet ownership, basic needs such as nutrition, housing, medical care, and more. These might include allowing a dog to be dangerously out of control, failing to provide adequate care, or neglecting basic welfare responsibilities.
By fostering self-awareness and educating about the impacts of a conviction on you, your family and community, and by providing techniques to manage anger resulting in positive change, the course empowers participants to break negative behavioural cycles and to have more positive interactions in daily life.
