A Local TV Story Waiting to Be Told
Safe Dog Walking for Seniors

Older adults walking dogs face a combination of fall hazards that are easy to overlook: the dog, the leash, the walking surface, the environment and the handler’s own movement.

Andrew’s C.A.N.I.N.E. Dog Walking Safety presentation and Safe Dog Walking for Seniors & Fall-Prevention Guide explore practical ways to reduce those risks.

Possible demonstrations:

  • Safe leash handling
  • Common walking hazards
  • Environmental assessment
  • Dog-handler positioning
  • Movement and balance exercises
  • How dog behavior can contribute to fall risk
  • How to make a walking route safer

These topics can be presented as demonstrations, interviews, field segments or a combination of the three.

Producing community television has taught Andrew to do considerably more than stand in front of a camera.

  • camera setup
  • microphones
  • lighting
  • coordinating guests
  • working around animals
  • managing noise
  • obtaining releases
  • keeping the conversation moving
  • coordinating people coming and going
  • handling the unexpected
