Teach children to be safe around Dogs

Doggone Safe's Be A Tree Program at Clark Memorial Library today at 4 p.m.

Dr. Tracy Johnson, owner of Happy Homes Pet Behavior Training, LLC will present at in Bethany today, May 20, at 4 p.m.

This program, for school age children, is a short presentation with large photos and lots of activities to teach children to understand the signs dogs send with their body language.

The central message of this program is “Be a Tree”. That is, stand still if a strange dog approaches or any dog is threatening or overly frisky. Children learn to be doggie detectives, looking for the clues that dogs give with body language to show how they are feeling.

Please call the library 203-393-2103 to pre-register.
