It gives you the basics about owning a pet and what you need to know for their welfare.
I don't see a need for certification for this course.
Recommended for general knowledge and resources

I learned so much about how to decrease stress for my pets and increase their happiness. I also learned how to better communicate with them. Thank you for helping improve my pets quality of life!

Although I read several books on dogs and cats, I have learned quite a lot in this course. I only wish there were a bit less repetitions from one week to the next, and that a step by step training for dog video was shown as a practical guideline.

The information provided was helpful and good information. However, it seemed as if most of the course was spent with the speakers telling us that they would provide the information in later videos. This could have been far more concise.

This class is decidedly a public service announcement for people acquiring their first pet. This course could be the introduction , the first class in a Specialization compromised of the uni's offerings on animal welfare.

This course has a lot of information about cats and dogs. I learned a lot of different things in this course I didn't know about cats. I learned all about the three different 'areas' a cat has around the yard, why cats like

Interesting. Helped me learn about ways to care for my old dog to better improve his mental wellbeing and how to recognize behavior and body language in my new cat as well as arrange his physical needs to better help him.

I found it helpful, entertaining and easy to understand.
I would have loved to have found more information about cats (interaction, adaptation, health problems...) since information about dogs is much more widely spread.

Good information but a bit repetitive, would have liked more information on changing unwanted behaviour such as barking, pulling on the lead, scrounging at the table especially for the older rescue dog

The questions that were just selecting breeds was the only negative part. They did not discuss those breeds in the videos. Otherwise, I enjoyed the class. I would give 4.5 stars if I could.

I learnt a lot about cats and dogs. Some of it is repetitive but that means you are more likely to finish the course with knowing the information well. Very enjoyable and recommend.

It was in insightful course. I learned several new things from the course. My only complaint would be that I wish it was a little more interactive. Good course. I am glad I did it.

This was an informative and enjoyable course. I really was only interested in the dog part, as I am allergic to cats! I look forward to using my new knowledge when I get a puppy.

The course is very interesting and informative. It tells about all the different aspects about behavior of cats and dogs including the history and myths behind it.

Much of the information in this course is specific to either dogs or to cats. Since my interest is only in dogs, I would have liked to be able to skip the other.

I enjoyed the course a great deal but there was a limited amount of information I hadn't already known from my years of personal study.
