Dog Bite Prevention

We love our dogs and as dog owners, it’s so important to remember that in their repertoire of communication, if all else fails, they have teeth and they just might use them. Talking about dog bites often brings to mind visions of scary dogs roaming the streets or off lead at parks, but the interesting thing is that most serious dog bites happen at home. They’re also not isolated to particular breeds only.

Auckland Dog Rules - Have Your Say!

Auckland Council is allowing public consultation on dog rules in Auckland until 10th May and I want to encourage as many local dog owners and non-owners alike to give feedback! Enrichment and socialisation are critical for healthy, happy dogs of all ages and these restrictions can directly impact on a dog’s ability to have those experiences.
