Ice Canine Counseling was created in 2022 when Cedric J. saw a clear disconnect between the way humans think dogs communicate and the complex and multifaceted way that dogs communicate with their environment and each other. Cedric noticed that homeless people have off-leash dogs all the time and never worry about them running off. He also realized the fundamental difference between the working dog communities and the pet dog community is simply the bond between handler and dog. By changing the way we communicate with our dogs we can become the center of their world which makes distactions and conflict virtually disapper.
