This Wednesday at 2:00 PM at AnimaNice Cimiez Center, 49 Avenue de la Marne
Prevention and awareness are solutions to avoid sometimes dramatic dog attacks and/or bites among the youngest.
This is why the city of Nice has set up introductory canine education workshops in Nice schools, but also in its AnimaNice centers.
This Wednesday, 12 children will participate in one of these workshops.
The workshop consists of two parts: a theoretical part in the morning and a practical part in the afternoon with the participation of Arnaud Morell, a canine educator and president of the Association Against Canine Discrimination.
This facilitator will help children better understand and avoid risky behaviors (canine psychology, bite prevention, dog language and communication) but also to realize that a dog is not a toy, that there are certain rules to follow, and that welcoming an animal into the home requires being responsible and respectful.
The children will be accompanied by their parents or grandparents and, of course, by their dogs for practical exercises conducted outdoors, at the center.
“Agility” equipment will be set up to form a course lasting approximately 10 minutes. Each dog on a leash will learn to navigate the obstacles, under the guidance of its owner and with the advice of the facilitator present alongside.
