Children’s Workshop: Dogs for companionship and assistance to children

Updated 20.02.2017

Children’s Workshop: Dogs for companionship and assistance to children  (This workshop will be held in parallel to the parents’ workshop – on the same dates and same hours)/

The dog training workshop is suitable for children age 6 and up. If younger children will register, we will arrange suitable activities.

Many studies have shown that dogs are friends and special, loving helpers for children and people with various illnesses.

Other studies focusing on people with MS have proven that their quality of life improves when that have a dog at home.

The first question people ask is how do we take the dog out for a walk and to do their business?

So we decided to bring a real expert and dog trainer to explain, show, demonstrate, answer any questionsand teach basic training – and come with dogs.
