How Law Enforcement Can Navigate Dog Encounters Safely and Successfully

Law Enforcement regarding animals involves two equally essential sets of personnel: Police and Animal Control. Each of these groups bring related, but different skill sets to the table. Yet one thing they both face? Dogs. Dogs that live in homes, reside on properties, run loose, live on chains, want snuggles and sometimes feel a need to bite. Understanding dog behavior, both best and worst, helps keep our Law Enforcement Officers safer and more able to adapt. This course sets a foundation of understanding reasons for perceived and real aggression in dogs. The workshop will help build strategies to avoid, reduce, and manage conflict and keep officers, the public, and animals as safe as possible by sharing the tools and techniques to use when things go awry.
