However, certain expectations are also placed upon you following our policies, and also in providing us with information to make this work. We make no excuses for the lengthy interview process you will have undertaken to ensure that this course is for you and that you have been honest with yourself about whether you are able to meet the requirements of the course. Our tutors are only selected from those who have literally “been there and got the t-shirt” and are now Canine Massage Guild members. Natalie began this course over a decade ago and developed the “Lenton Method” to the Clinically trialled success it has to proved to be through these expectations placed up on you.
