What if we could drastically reduce the 4.5 million dog bites that happen annually—half of which affect children—through innovative education that teaches kids to "speak dog"? That's exactly what the Be BiteSmart initiative aims to accomplish. Dr. Nicholas Dodman, one of the world's most celebrated veterinary behaviorists, and Vivian Zottola, anthrozoology consultant and behavior specialist, join forces to discuss their groundbreaking approach to preventing dog bites to children. Through the Center for Canine Behavior Studies, they've developed age-appropriate resources that go far beyond traditional "don't pull the dog's tail" warnings, employing animated videos, interactive coloring books, sophisticated apps, and even virtual reality experiences, all designed with input from child development psychologists. <a href='https://www.centerforcaninebehaviorstudies.org/bebitesmart'>Be BiteSmart - Center for Canine Behavior Studies</a><a href='https://www.vivianzottola.com'>Vivian Zottola</a>Learn more about options for help for dogs with aggression here: <a href='https://aggressivedog.com'>AggressiveDog.com</a> Learn more about our annual Aggression in Dogs Conference here: <a href='https://aggressivedog.com/conference/'>The Aggression in Dogs Conference</a> Subscribe to the bonus episodes available here: <a href='https://thebiteyendofthedog.supercast.com/subscriber/reactivations/new?plan_id=2923&price_id=6531'>The Bitey End of the Dog Bonus Episodes</a> Check out all of our webinars, courses, and educational content here: <a href='https://aggressivedog.thinkific.com'>Webinars, courses, and more!</a>
