MGAP Community Outreach Program
Child/dog safety talks led by Christina Tardif (and her greyhound Bandit, a certified Therapy Dog and also a Child Certified Therapy dog) are accessible to organizations on an availability basis. There is no charge for this service but we would accept a donation to MGAP in any amount. The talk is approximately thirty minutes which includes visual aids and handouts.
MGAP uses and promotes strictly positive training and behavior techniques
What is "humane"?
1.Don't do to a dog what you would not want someone to do to "you".
2.Don't do to a dog what you would not do to a "child".
What is abuse?
Abuse: of dogs is using any method or tool that will cause fear, injury, or pain to the animal. It includes, physical, psychological or emotional.
MGAP is very unique and extremely fortunate to have its President, Deb Levasseur, certified as a "Canine Behavior Therapist". She offers all counseling services free of charge to ALL MGAP members. She is also certified in Canine first Aid as well as Obedience training.
