Call for Dog Education On School Curriculum

A Cornish dog charity wants to see education about dogs added to the curriculum in order to cut down on dog ignorance.

Canine behaviour specialist, Jez Rose, who founded the National Responsible Dog Owners Campaign in a bid to reduce dog bites and the amount of dog fouling left in public spaces said: “teaching children about dogs and how to safely interact with them and behave around them is critical in improving the lives of dogs, dog owners and those living around dogs in the future. I think more education in schools can only be a good thing.”

Jez has produced a number of free resources specifically for children to help them understand dog behaviour, available from his website here.
