Corporate Canine – Site Visits

Corporate Canine will work together with HR, Management and Staff to custom design and implement a Dog@Work program. Using a combination of training sessions, written material, one-on-one discussions, and direct work with employees and their dogs, a successful program will be put together that is as unique as your company.

Site visits include the following components

1). Initial Consultation – Facility Assessment & Goal Setting:

The process begins with a comprehensive site review. We tour your facility, observe daily operations, and gather information from pertinent staff. The result is a confidential recommendation for a course of action.

2). Staff Training:

Trainings are fun, interactive and appropriate for any size group. They’ll include:

• Introduction to Dog@Work programs – General talk, ideal for interested staff in all departments.
• An explanation of management and employees role in the success of the program, including an explanation of all ground rules, and training in canine body language.

3). Implementation of the program into your workplace:

We’ll make your workplace comfortable for those involved in the Dog@Work program, and equally important, those who are not participating in it. We’ll be on-site to provide guidance and oversight as the program gets underway.

4). Overview Report:

This report summarizes your customized Dog@Work program and provides detailed suggestions for management and staff to keep momentum, and maximize success.

5). Follow-up visits:

Any successful program requires time, effort and practice to develop. We’ll provide on-going assessment of your Dog@Work program, training for new staff joining the program, and assistance on problems that are encountered
