About this event

  • 1 hour

Dogs are all around us, so let's be ready to interact with them in a safe and respectful manner. Learn how to ask a dog's permission to pet them and how to tell if they are enjoying it. Also learn what to do if approached by a strange dog or one that might be jumping on you.

This event is geared towards children, but the content is equally valuable to adults as well. An adult must be present to supervise children and assist as needed. This is an online event and you will receive a zoom link to join the workshop after you register to attend the session.
