Helfer auf vier Pfoten
The right way to deal with dogs has to be learned: What is the best way to approach a dog? How do you touch it? To ensure that children who grow up without a dog of their own are not afraid of dogs and have the opportunity to learn how to handle them correctly, the human-dog teams of the "Helfer auf vier Pfoten" visit kindergartens, schools and events.
