Pet Dog Assessments
because child safety is paramount!
Pet assessments for social workers, foster carers, and adoptive parents
Support for Social Workers
Are you a foster care professional working with a dog-owning family?
Whether you’re seeking reassurance about a dog’s breed, concerned about the number of dogs in a household, or addressing a dog that has shown aggressive behaviour, I’m here to help.
With years of experience in canine behaviour, I provide expert support, guidance, and tailored recommendations. My assessments focus on the potential risks a dog may pose to a child’s safety and whether they could present a safeguarding concern.
