Dog Safety Starts with Education 🐾

Dog bites and scratches can cause serious injuries and can have lasting consequences for both the child and the dog involved.

One of the most important things parents can do is teach children how to interact safely and respectfully with dogs. This applies not only to your own pets, but also to dogs belonging to friends, family members, and strangers in public.

Some important lessons to teach include:

• Always ask the owner for permission before approaching or petting a dog.
• Understand that not every dog wants to be touched, even if it looks friendly.
• Never disturb a dog that is eating, sleeping, caring for puppies, or resting in its crate or bed.
• Do not approach or distract working or service dogs.
• Learn to recognize signs that a dog wants space, such as moving away, hiding, growling, showing the whites of its eyes, tucking its tail, or licking its lips repeatedly.
• Avoid pulling ears, tails, fur, or grabbing onto dogs.
• Never put your face close to a dog's face.
• Do not climb on, ride, or sit on dogs.
• Use gentle touches and calm voices around animals.

Teaching children to respect a dog's boundaries helps create safer interactions, prevents injuries, and supports the well-being of both children and dogs. Responsible dog safety education benefits everyone. 🐶❤️👧👦

Microchips are as small as a grain of rice and can be vital in returning your dog to you in a number of situations!

If your dog is already microchipped, be sure to check that the contact information is accurate. You can look up the number on your vet records/invoices or call your vet, then check to see if your phone number and address are correct!

See you tonight at the Durham Community Park! Remember that we will still accept new dogs into the manners class (its the last week to join!) And our conformation (show) class accepts newcomers each week!

Manners is an excellent class for dogs who need to work on their basic behaviors and skills and learn good manners.

Tonight we'll be on the other side of the park this week. We don't actively have a map available but look for our dogs and set up!

Attention class members!

Durham Park has requested that we relocate our classes to Area CP-5 to allow for adequate parking for both our group and softball participants. This change will take effect starting tomorrow, 04/09/2026.

We will still be at the park—just in a new area!

We are still accepting dogs for Manners classes (final week to join)!

Conformation is offered as an individual class weekly, so you’re welcome to attend at any time. Youth are especially encouraged to participate in conformation (it's free for youth) this is a great opportunity for 4-H, FFA, Grange, and independent exhibitors. -FYI: If you show rabbits, pygmy goats, poultry, or other small animals, you may find yourself in Round Robin showing dogs, so come join us!
