Northamptonshire Police have reported a 30% rise in dog bites, tipped to be just the beginning of what is to come in 2021 across surrounding counties following the rise in lockdown puppy ownership.
Wood Green, The Animals Charity is keen to curb the trend. Its FREE ‘Woody’s Dog Safety Workshops can be presented live digitally onto a whiteboard and are full of fun activities, teaching children what dogs like and don’t like and times when it’s best to leave a dog alone.
