Last week, it was reported that Dr. Albert Y. Chu, who is with the Maryland State Examiner's Office, stated that some dogs are prone to
attack baby swings because the back-n-forth motion triggers an attack mechanism.
Today, Jennifer Shyrock, a certified dog behavior consultant who educates parents and children on dog bites, announced her new program called, "
Dogs & Storks", a series of education products to help expectant parents prepare for when their dog meets the new baby.
The Dogs & Storks program includes:
- a semi-private workshop that offers education on the special circumstances surrounding bringing a baby into a home with a family dog
- a teleclass offered in a phone conference format
- an educational CD in E-Book (PDF) format that includes information from the workshop with pictures, activities and homework ideas
- private customized consultation and services designed to identify and address specific concerns and issues. Offered via phone or in person
- support via phone and email
