Delta Dog Safe™ is a FREE dog bite prevention program presented in education facilities (predominately primary schools) across South Australia.
Aimed at children under 10, the program is delivered by accredited volunteers in the classroom.
Using visual aids, audience participation and a life size TOY Dalmatian dog, the fourty-minute presentation teaches children how to read a dog’s body language and equips students with the skills needed to interact with dogs safely at home and in the wider community.
Teachers receive a resource kit to use before and after their visit and students are given a brochure and stickers to take home.
Delta Dog Safe™ was developed by Delta Society Australia, a not-for-profit, community based organisation located in Sydney, Australia.
Delta Dog Safe™ SA is funded in South Australia through a grant to Delta Society Australia by The Dog and Cat Management Board.
