It’s a Date - Part 1: Preparing for Safe Dog Playgroups Play! For many dogs, it’s the cure to the behavior problems you’re spending all your time working on. It can also play a vital role in maintaining canine behavioral health. Stress, distress, fear, anxiety, jumping/mouthing, barking and more, can be reduced with social interactions. Of course, playgroups are not appropriate for all dogs, but they’re great for most. This content will be helpful for anyone involved in introducing, facilitating, and maintaining safe play, including rescues and shelters that want to begin a play program.
