The goal of the Management Level Dog Bite Prevention Workshop is to train corporate safety, operational and field leaders to become the company’s local experts for establishing and managing on-going occupational dog bite safety programs.
They will gain an understanding of pre-attack avoidance techniques, post-bite issues as a result of incident-induced trauma, and create their own training and safety plan.
Bulli Ray live dog training affords in-field employees with the tools and training to successfully evaluate and assess risk of attack, defend against single dog and pack attacks, identify breeds that pose a threat, and effectively identify and report dangerous dog attack and potential attack situations. To assist leadership in understanding the environment their employees consistently face, the Management Level Workshop also uses live dogs to allow the participants to experience the impact of a real attack.

Webinar – Dog Bite Safety – June 23rd 2011 2pm EST

Bulli Ray would like to thank everyone who attended our Dog Bite Prevention Demo in Chicago. Great Conference! Awsome city…

Occupational Dog Bite Safety Webinar!  June 5 2011 @ 2pm EST

We are renting dogs in the cities we train. For over 15 years Bulli Ray has transported our own dogs from coast to coast. If your company has had the Bulli Ray team into your location you might remember Goose, Rosie, Baron, Irk, Cartouche, Bo, Bjork, Athos or Eloes. We will always have dogs but they will no longer travel outside of Florida.
We are now calling on my fellow dog trainers that are involved in dog sports, like I once did with Bulli Ray. They are happy to use their dogs to help train your employees and get paid for their time. This will defiantly bring variety to our training programs.

Winter is here but it will be spring soon enough.  Maybe not soon enough for some parts of the country!  Loose dogs will be escaping their yards looking for females in heat.   Dogs that are able to jump their fences will be out looking for trouble.  Watch for the unfamiliar dog on your way to your next job.
Families will be home preparing for spring break and vacations.  As you know this becomes a dangerous time for the field worker. Garage doors will be slightly opened, allowing a perfect hiding place for that attacking dog.
Unfortunately the Pit Bull is becoming more and more a problem.  This is a shame since there are so many great Pit Bulls. I personally have had several of these dogs over my 30 some years of training dogs. They are stubborn but usually super sweet to friends and family. Employees want to believe that every Pit Bull they encounter will be aggressive. This can’t be further from the truth! Remind your workers that all dogs on their routes should be evaluated individually. No breed can be considered ALL BAD OR ALL GOOD!!

Bulli Ray has moved back to Florida! We are thrilled to be in the Horse Capital of The World. If you don’t know Anthony and I have been involved in Thoroughbred horse racing for over 30 years. I find it more rewarding being an owner than the person mucking stalls. I still clean the stalls occasionally but not that often. We have foals due over the next three months. The weather is glorious. That’s why we wanted to come back to Florida.
Absolutely loved Tennessee! Everything, the people the scenery and country music, what’s not to love? Like most businesses we were affected greatly by the downturn in the economy. We had brought a huge place in Murfreesboro, TN and found ourselves struggling to stay afloat. Now we are living simpler with much less stress. Hopefully the economy comes roaring back and everyone will get back to work. We are already seeing glimpses of positive change.

We are no longer getting into the Dodge truck pulling the dog trailer across country. We are flying and hiring dogs and their handlers in the cities we train. If you don’t know we lost several dogs over the last 30 months including Bo our Argentine Dogo. We just didn’t want to start over with new dogs! The decision was made to use a network of Schutzhund and protection dog trainers across the country. Why not use the dogs that are living near the training locations or conferences we schedule. It helps the dog trainers utilize their hard work and training. We have been fortunate to hire some pretty awesome dogs for your future presentations.

We still have two dogs in our program; a Presa Canary “Elose” and a Belgium Malinois “Rex”. They will be coming to our trainings booked in the southeast. Because of the economy we are offering webinars once a month. They can be totally customized for our clients. Your webinar can be any length of time covering any part or just a portion of our Dog Bite Safety Training. This is a win win for both Bulli Ray and our clients. We also have our new E-Learning Computer Based Training. We partnered with the Louisiana Safety Council and PowerSafe to create a training that is totally tractable. The individual training is only $34.00 per person. Very affordable!! Remember, employees are more likely to sue their employer after an aggressive attack if they have not been trained.

This year we will be going to Chicago to present at the American Society of Safety Engineers in June. The Rural Electric Coop Conference in Orlando next month. We are sharing a booth with PowerSafe so please come by and say Hi! We look forward to seeing many of our friends from past training sessions and making new friends.

Let me know if you have questions or comments.
Have a very safe day!!

We are so excited to launch our blog. Check back for updates soon!
