🐕 Do we really understand our dogs? What is a dog trying to tell us through fear, anxiety, reactivity or aggression? How do pain, illness, nutrition and the environment shape their emotions? And how can we help dogs feel safer instead of simply trying to change their behaviour? These are exactly the questions we’ll explore at the PDTE Annual Conference & AGM 2026 - “Dogs with Big Emotions.” 📍 Riga Islande Hotel, Riga, Latvia 📅 September 26-28, 2026 Join 9 internationally recognised experts from 8 countries as they share practical knowledge and evidence-based approaches to understanding and supporting dogs experiencing big emotions.
