*WANT IAN DUNBAR TO CONDUCT A SEMINAR IN OTTAWA?*

Dr. Ian Dunbar retired from the seminar trail in 2015 but recently he has been toying with the idea of getting back out there for a handful of talks in a select few locations.

So, if you are interested in seeing Dr. Dunbar give a seminar in 2024, please fill out this form and tell all of your doggy friends to do so as well. He's only going to have time to visit a few cities, so if you would like him to come to a city near you, please fill out this form and tell all of your doggy friends to do so as well.

The more people who complete this form, the more likely Dr. Dunbar will schedule a talk in our area. You can use this link to make it easy: https://dunbar.info/seminar_interest
