In March of 2003, The Safe Kids/Safe Dogs Project applied for a small grant through
the Virginia Department of Health Center for Injury and Violence Prevention. Happily, we were awarded the grant!
As part of the grant, we developed even more materials for public and educational use.
These can be downloaded for personal use. If you wish to use them as part of an educational program, please contact me first. Please do not link directly to these as it does eat up bandwidth. You can save them to a file and then upload them to
your site from there. Please email for permission before doing this and do not alter the materials in any way.
You will need Acrobat Reader for these. If you do not have Acrobat Reader, you may download it here.

"Hi.. My name is Janelle Chavez.. I am on the Valencia County Animal Control Advisory Board.. I have been looking for printable material that we can give out to children to help prevent dog bites.. I really like
your printable material-- would you mind if we printed it out for the shelter workers to carry on their trucks to hand out.. Thank you very much Janelle Chavez 505-xxx-xxxx"
