Public Education...
We provide volunteer speakers and dog/ handler teams for presentations on the following topics:
Interactions of Dogs and Children
Most dog bites are suffered by children, and many do not fully realize why that is true. Actually, there are a few root causes that are common to most incidents.
Children, and sometimes adults can, unintentionally, do things that dogs dislike intensely and can trigger a bad reaction. Our safety seminar teaches both adults and children how to read a dog's body language and avoid doing things that can create a dangerous environment. Everyone loses when a child is bitten. When the cause is missed, the stage is set for future incidents. Once some understanding of our K9 buddies, and kids, is attatined, these unfortunate incidents, usually, do not repeat.
There is a lot involved in accepting the responsibility of having a companion dog in the family. We discuss the various do's and don'ts of dog ownership, legal implications, and fun things to do with your dog(s).
Responsible Dog Ownership & Choosing the Right Dog
