1. Children are at risk of dog bite in association with resource guarding by the dog or pain-causing interactions. Unfamiliar children are at risk of dog bite while in the dog’s home, yard, or perceived territory, regardless of whether or not they are interacting with the dog.2.All dogs evaluated for human-directed aggression in our study had a behavior and/or medical abnormality.3.Episodes of aggression were not limited to specific dog breeds, gender, neuter status, or history of training.4. The risk of biting may be increased in the presence of pain or disease in the pet.

When does developmental age become old?

We are always developing,And so are our pets.

Page 67: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?
Page 68: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

All species have some sort of culture, even if it is only defined as early imprinting.

Never underestimate early imprinting.

Page 69: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?
Page 70: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

Never underestimate early imprinting.

No matter the culture or the species.

Page 71: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?
Page 72: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

Likewise never underestimate the power of

education and will.

No matter the culture or the species.

Page 80: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

Assessing the familyTOP THREE CONCERNS

Who Wants This PET?

Page 81: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

What is the primary affectional relationship.

Who wants this pet.

In all current surveys compiled by the the number one reason given for pet adoption was companionship.

Parents often give among their top reasons:

“It’s for the kids”

Really?

Page 84: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?
Page 85: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

What is the primary caregiving relationship?

Who will take care of this pet.

Page 86: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

Assess the primary caregiver in the family.

Although this is usually the mother, do not assume it is, it can be anyone from the grandfather to the oldest sister.

Page 87: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

Assess the primary caregiver in the family.

Although this is usually the mother, do not assume it is, it can be anyone from the grandfather to the oldest sister.

This is NOT who will be the primary caregiver for this pet, it is who has that role in the family.

If they do not want the pet – DO NOT PROCEED

Page 88: ICAWC 2011: Elizabeth Teal - Family Pet or Family Problem?

Assessing the family

If the parents are heavy handed with the children,

generally speaking, they will ALL be heavy handed with the

pet.
