How to Prevent & Respond to Dog Bites
Advertisement
Dog bites and dog bite fatalities are increasing. Most dog bites are not only forseeable, but preventable if you understand why they occur and the measures that can be taken to ensure your safety.
Cindy Ludwig, a seasoned RN and experienced professional dog trainer and behavior consultant will teach you how to avoid being bitten by a dog, and what to do if threatened or bitten.
Cindy has been doing dog bite presentations for various audiences for more than 15 years and audiences have always found her talks to be interesting and helpful.
If you have children, this information is a must, since children, especially boys, under the age of about 12 are at highest risk for dog bites.
This is an interactive presentation and children are encouraged to come. There will be time at the end for questions. Seating is limited, so please call or scan the QR code to register.
