Dongjak-gu, Customized Education for Pets Increases Resident Satisfaction

Identifying Problem Behaviors According to Family Living Environment and Habits, Providing 1-on-1 Customized Education

Dongjak-gu (Mayor Park Il-ha) announced on the 11th that the "Visiting Dog Behavior Correction Program," which has been implemented since June, is receiving great responses from residents as it approaches its final stages.

This project provides systematic education to pets for residents who face difficulties due to problem behaviors of their pets or non-compliance with pet etiquette.

A professional trainer visited a total of 50 households in person. The program was highly evaluated for identifying the problem behaviors of dogs according to the living environment and habits of the target families and conducting one-on-one customized training.

Additionally, the program increased satisfaction through various practical experiences and exercises that are genuinely helpful to both pets and their owners, including ▲understanding the dog's temperament and living space ▲consultation and correction of problem behaviors ▲rearrangement of the living environment.

Based on a survey of all participants, the program will be reflected in next year's projects, and it is planned to be conducted outdoors at places such as pet parks. The dog behavior correction project will continue to be promoted in the future.

Besides this, the district is carrying out various animal welfare projects such as creating the longest pet park in the country, providing medical expense support for pets in vulnerable households, and offering up to 250,000 KRW support for adopting abandoned animals.

Park Il-ha, Mayor of Dongjak-gu, stated, "As the population living with pets increases, we will do our best to support animal protection and welfare improvements so that a mature pet culture can be established."
