Evidence-based insights in canine sport science.
Supporting safer training, smarter handling, and stronger partnerships.
Grounded in sport science, this is a space for curiosity, and clarity. I share insights from my own research and from others, translating the best current evidence into practical takeaways you can actually use.
With a PhD in sport science and 30 years in canine sport, I share insights from biomechanics, skill acquisition, and functional anatomy—turning research into strategies for safer, smarter performance.
Rooted in the principles of evidence-based practice, I draw on research, lived experience, and what our dogs show us to help reduce injury risk and guide thoughtful choices in training, equipment, and course design.
Insights from canine sport science in motion.
Hi, I’m Kim Cullen: kinesiologist, researcher, and lifelong dog sport nerd. Welcome to Canines in Motion, a space where science meets sport. With a PhD in sport science and 30 years in canine sport, I’ve built this site to help bridge the gap between research and real-life training.
I’m not here to sell a method or a product. I’m here to share what the evidence says and help us make better-informed choices for the dogs we love.
Here, you’ll find evidence-informed insights, practical tools, and a shared commitment to performance that puts canine well-being first.
Because work shouldn’t hurt. And that includes sport.
