Are you ready to learn and have fun?
Dogs give us lots of love and joy,
They are our best friends,
So we need to look after them well,
Give them pats, walks,
and play with their favourite toy.
Let's learn all about a dog's life,
how they feel,
and how we can help them thrive.
Join us for an amazing ride,
with giant games, sensory boxes,
role-play and more,
Bizzy the dog will be your ultimate guide
