How to Prevent Dog Bites
Dog bites are a serious issue, especially among children. The biggest reason for dog bites is that people do not know body language. During this workshop we will help you limit risk of children getting seriously injured by a dog bite. In a simplified format aimed at being an easy to read guide to understanding your dog.
Learn about some surprising statistics regarding dog bites, and how best to prevent your dog from biting someone, as well as preventing your child from being bit by a neighborhood dog.
