Earlier this month Mumferd made an appearance at Atlanta’s Central Library to discuss pool and water safety with his fans. Ross Williams of Neighbor News wrote about the event. Being safe is so important, and especially for children. We’re thrilled that Mumferd’s tales will reach more people this way.

Mumferd is a little puppet dog with thick brown fur and an abnormally long snout. He made his acting debut 21 years ago in a Kaiser Permanente educational theater production designed to teach kids how to stay safe at home alone.

The theater performs productions for all ages, including adults, on topics ranging from bullying and drug use to stress reduction and grief management.

Mumferd’s job is to tour libraries in metro Atlanta, giving safety advice to children. During the summer, his focus is water safety.
