Can you read the tell-tail signs? 🐕 🐩 🐶
Is your dog anxious about new spaces? Can you tell if a strange dog is safe to pat? New Zealanders love animals, and are proud to be in a country that boasts one of the highest rates of pet ownership in the world (we have more pets than people!). With all these doggos and puppers about, it pays to be familiar with canine communication. The online Dog Safe Workplace course is set up to provide the skills to gain confidence, awareness, and, improve interaction with our canine friends. Designed to be suitable for everyone including dog lovers, dog owners, people working in the pet industry, and people whose job brings them in contact with dogs such as meter readers. It’s a tool to build confidence in people nervous about interacting with dogs, and you’ll get a certificate on completion.
