School Dog Insurance Assessments
As a qualified animal behaviourist, I’m pleased to offer a new service specifically for schools introducing a school dog: a full behaviour assessment to support safe integration and meet insurance requirements.
More and more schools are recognising the benefits of having a school dog—providing emotional support, reducing anxiety, and creating a positive atmosphere.
But having a dog in a busy school environment comes with responsibilities. Most insurers now require a formal behaviour assessment to ensure the dog is suitable for the setting and that risks are appropriately managed.
This is where I can help.
If your school needs an assessment for a current or prospective school dog, I’d be happy to help.
What is involved?
-
Step 1: Tell me about your dog
Contact me using the form below, telling me a bit about your dog and requirements for school. I will get back to you as soon a I can (usually within 48 hours but hopefully even sooner) to answer any questions you may have and to send the booking details.
-
Step 2: Information Gathering
Before the assessment date, I will send a link to an online pre-assessment questionnaire. This gathers essential background information about the dog and school environment to help tailor and streamline assessment.
-
Step 3: Assessment
This really isn’t as scary as it sounds! I visit you to observe the dog in a variety of environments and situations. This is usually held in school but may be in a different environment. I offer advice and guidance to support you in the process.
-
Step 4: Report
The final report provides a detailed, professional summary of the assessment findings, including the dog’s suitability for the school environment and any recommendations required for insurance compliance.
Take the first step by completing the form at the bottom of this page.
