Dog Safety education Talks

---

Did you know that ALL dogs can bite?  But most bites are PREVENTABLE!

Children under 12 are, by far the most common victims of dog bites and 74% of bites come from a dog that is familiar to them, such as the family dog or a friend or neighbour's dog.  Studies have shown that teaching kids how to read canine body language and how to interact safely and responsibly with dogs, help children to avoid putting themselves in risky situations.

There are so many dogs around these days, so it's important for children to understand how to behave around ALL dogs.  This is why I am offering free kid friendly dog safety presentations, that teaches children how to read basic dog body language and practicing safe interactions with dogs through engaging activities.  Aimed at children 4 - 16, this is a unique service designed for children and tailored for schools, after-school clubs and community groups.

If you are a teacher, childcare professional, or community group leader and interested in arranging a talk, I'd love to chat.
