Mommy, Can We Get a Dog?
With Dr. Michelle Posage

1:00 - 4:00 PM
Hudson, MA

At some point, almost every parent gets asked this question. Those that chose the dual role of new parent and dog-owner will have many challenges. Dr. Posage will share her experience, not only as a veterinarian and pet behaviorist, but also as a parent, so you will be prepared to help the dog “that Mommy got for the kids”. This discussion will teach you how to:
• create a healthy and safe relationship between dog and child
• manage common dog behavior problems in households with children
• successfully introduce a baby into a household with dogs
• include children of different ages in obedience training
• help a family to select a dog that matches their lifestyle
• recognize a “bad match” and help a family with the consequences
