Dogs Trust Visit

 

 

One day Aoife a Dogs Trust employee came to all classes, explaining about the rules of keeping a dog, and what you need to keep a dog healthy and happy!

Those things included:

 

Time

Money

 

Space

She also chatted about how dogs are chosen for families or the other way around.

We were given a mini quiz on paring families to dogs.

This included a slow and old dog for elderly people or peoples at home a lot, a bright and speedy dog for the more active family, a lovely cute puppy that loves car journeys.

These dogs all suited different family types.
