As part of our ‘World at Work’ week, we had a visit from someone who works for the Dog’s Trust. She told us all about what happens to the dogs when they arrive at the trust. We learned how and why the dogs are treated with flea spray. We learned that one flea can bite a dog upto 300 times a day. We also learned that all dogs are fitted with a microchip so that the dogs and their owner can be tracked if something happens. We also learned why it is so important for owners to clean up after their dogs and that owners may be made to pay a fine  if they do not follow the rules.

It was interesting to learn about the different types of jobs people do in the Dogs Trust, from vets to canine carers. Perhaps one day someone in our class will work for the Dog’s Trust. Who knows?
