Dog-Safety.Net
is your resource
for dog bite prevention information. This site will continually grow
and offer tips, tricks, links & photos. All of this is done with
the goal of encouraging you to take an active role in dog bite
prevention. Some of the advice comes from us (Ron & Jen Fone) and
our 12 years experience teaching dog bite prevention, using the AKC
Canine Ambassador program & countless other resources to build our
program. See AKC's Sept 2003 Public Education Newsletter for our Community Achievement Award for presenting Dog Bite Prevention training to all ages (PDF file). No one is ever too young to learn something about dog safety. A year old child can be taught to properly pet a dog. 2 & 3 year olds easily learn to ask if they can pet a dog & learn the proper way to do so. 4 years old & up can learn the basics: NEVER pet a stray dog. ALWAYS ask if you can pet someone else's dog. NEVER pet a dog who is eating. NEVER run from a dog. There are many more Do's & Dont's which you will find throughout this site that can be taught to elementary school aged children. Don't fret. There will be information to be shared with older children, but you will have to learn it and extract what you feel is going to captivate your group. So, WELCOME. Come in and browse the site. Take what you need & leave the rest. By the way, having behavioral issues with your dog: crate training, growling around food, challenging your authority, jumping up on people, pulling while walking etc..... Big problems, little problems, we're here to help if we can. Please contact us at: behavior_question@dog-safety.net |

EACH ONE REACH ONE Help someone out by pledging to spay/neuter a pet when the owner can't afford it. This act of kindness will keep many dogs from being put to sleep. (click on the link above) |
