DOG SAFE PROGRAMME

Today, Wednesday the 12th of June 2019, room 17 & 18 were involved in a Dog Safe programme.  We made our way to the hall at 9.10am, and saw two tired looking dogs, laying there with their trainers holding on to the dog leash.  

Most of the students reacted well when they came into view of the dogs, but there were a few scared looking faces as we drew nearer to the dogs.   

The dog trainers began the programme by introducing themselves and their lovely pets.  One dog began barking, and we all laughed out loud thinking it was trying to introduce itself.

The key focus of today's dog programme was how we can care for dogs, and safe ways of dealing with dogs.

  

  

We learnt the following:

• all dogs must have a leash
• when taking a dog for a walk in public, you must always clean up after your dog
• they must have food and water
• they must have a collar.

The 3 Golden rules

1) If you want to touch a dog, you must always ask the owner

2) It they say yes, touch a dog on their back.

3) Don't run if a dog is chasing you, stand like a tree.
