This is a much needed video that every parent needs to watch, whether they own dogs or not. It’s estimated that 77% of dog bites involving children come from the family dog or a dog they know. Unfortunately, it’s all too common that the dog ends up suffering just as much as the child. This video supplies the ultimate answer to dog bite prevention — education. Adults need to learn and understand dog behavior so they can teach it to their children, because this is the only real way that dog bites can be prevented.
More and more people are becoming aware of canine body language, but the majority of families are still quick to blame the dogs. We know the sad truth about what happens to dogs that bite children, even when they gave every warning sign as best as they could. Stop the 77 is a dog bite prevention team of dog-trainer moms that offers extraordinary online video courses for parents and children aimed at teaching them how to properly handle and live with dogs, leading to a better outcome for everyone.
Even if we don’t have our own children, it is our responsibility as dog owners to educate others on how to safely interact with dogs. Stop the 77 offers some of the best information out there through educational, easy-to-access and enjoyable videos, posters and other media that both children and adults will love. Education is the key to keeping both our children safe and our dogs in happy, healthy homes forever.
