KAD - Kids Around Dogs® is an award winning association of Dog Professionals and Child Care Professionals who specialise in working with families and schools to help children and dogs to live in harmony together.
As a child, I had a very scary experience with a neighbours dog that for years left me scared when around dogs. Thankfully, I managed to overcome this fear thanks to a friends dog. This experience showed me how difficult life can be when you are worried about dogs, particular when you are a child.
That is why I enrolled with Kids Around Dogs who offer a specifically designed program to help kids overcome their fear of dogs.

This program is designed to help kids overcome their fear of dogs.
This program consists of 8 x 20 - 30 minute training sessions. These can be a mixture of in-person and online. This is down to you and your kids preference.
The first 6 sessions, involve learning about dogs body language, how to approach them and how to safely interact with them. Age specific homework will be given to help with the program.
The final 2 sessions, will usually involve meeting a real-life dog, in this case it will be my dog Tywin.
Further sessions can be purchased if needed.
When it comes to choosing a dog trainer, I believe every owner should be informed up front on the training methods that they will be using. ...more
