Dogs are an integral part of our lives; they are present in parks, on beaches, and throughout our neighborhoods. Many families, friends, and neighbors have dogs. It is crucial to understand how to train dogs positively to coexist with children and how to educate our children to navigate a world that includes dogs. This is the mission of Kids Around Dogs® (KAD).

​

Kids Around Dogs® is an association comprised of qualified and experienced professionals specializing in both canine and child care. Our team is rigorously assessed and trained to assist families with their dogs, implementing protocols designed to alleviate children's fears of dogs and facilitating dog interactions within school environments.

​

Furthermore, our KAD-approved professionals undergo DBS checks and are adept at working with children of all ages, ensuring a safe and effective learning environment for both kids and dogs.

Our focus extends beyond simply training your dog; we are committed to educating your family about our canine companions, fostering a harmonious relationship between humans and dogs.

 

How we can help:

- If your child is hesitant around dogs.
- If you seek to ensure a well-mannered family dog that is respected 
  by children who understand dog body language.
