Bark Busters Dog Safety Program is designed for organizations that want to keep their people safe and dramatically reduce the costs associated with dog bites and related injuries.

Preventing Dog Attacks and Dog-Related Injuries

Developed, delivered and supported by Bark Busters—the world’s largest, most trusted dog training company—Bark Busters Dog Safety Program™ combines on-site, in-person employee safety training classes with ongoing support through our exclusive dog-safety Web portal.

Bark Busters Dog Safety Program™ begins with a two-hour face-to-face session with Bark Busters dog behavioral experts. Offering an effective mix of theory on pack law and the canine psyche as well as practical safety techniques, the training helps employees who encounter dogs as part of their daily work routines to:

• Understand how to safely enter an area where dogs are present
• Recognize the signs of aggression in dogs
• Recognize and apply canine communication techniques
• Learn techniques to avoid dog attacks
• Deal appropriately with dog owners
• Mitigate or prevent injury in the event of a dog attack

The program accomplishes these goals through direct instruction, interactive role-play, videos of real cases and interactive demonstrations. Participants also receive workbooks and a course certificate after successful completion.

To optimize the program’s effectiveness and reduce the impact on company productivity that often accompanies employee training, the Bark Busters Dog Safety Program on-site training is complemented by ongoing Web-based training and support.
