with Elizabeth Whiter Read More…

Elizabeth’s pioneering Animal Healing School established in 2005 is the first to train and register graduates in Diplomas in animal and equine healing with full insurance. During the course students work with the various companion animals; dogs and cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets and even reptiles and bats. Beginning on day one, this vocational course has plenty of practical experience and detailed study material. This is a unique in depth course in animal healing based on the extensive training, experience and work undertaken by Elizabeth Whiter in her international animal healing practice. The focus of this course will be on cats, dogs and small animals, however two further hands-on courses will be offered to successful students allowing them to specialise in equine healing and animal self selection.  Click here for information on the Diploma in Equine Healing, and for The Diploma in Small Animal Sensory and Food Enrichment click here. All successful graduates who have trained with Elizabeth in the Diploma in Animal Healing will be entitled to full insurance as animal healers. (Elizabeth has also secured student insurance for those that are currently training with her in the Diploma in Animal Healing).

Primate and Wild Life Sensory Enrichment

A very important part of our work at the Healing Animals Organisation (HAO) is captive wildlife sensory and environmental enrichment and we volunteer our services at wild life rescue centres and Zoos in the UK and overseas in countries such as Borneo and Ecuador. Enrichment can take many forms and at HAO we have been pioneering and adapting primate and wild animal sensory enrichments. We offer many different species of tree browse, herbage and plant based compounds: replicating as many textures, tastes and aromas which animals might encounter in the wild. We are creative and innovative with our environmental and food enrichments: offering healthy food enrichments to keep the immune system strong and enclosure enrichments which ensure that captive animals remain both physically fit and mentally healthy. We try and replicate many wild food compounds and how animals would forage for them in the wild. We work with orangutans and macaques in Borneo and in Ecuador with troops such as capuchin, squirrel, tamarin, spider and woolly. Read More…
