The famous proverb that a dog is a man's friend, unfortunately, is not always true. How many cases in the world do dogs attack humans? Lots of! A few simple tips will help you avoid falling prey to this situation.
Instructions
Step 1
Do not call or flirt with unfamiliar dogs. No matter how friendly she seems to you, remember that in addition to a wagging tail, dogs also have sharp fangs. Perhaps the animal will perceive your completely "playing" gesture as a signal to attack.
Step 2
Stay away from your dog when he is addicted to food or love games. Also, do not bother dogs that are guarding something or are waiting for their owner.
Step 3
Beware of those dogs that guard private houses and cottages. It used to be that “loud” mongrel mongrels were brought up for protection, and now they are trying to buy and train dogs that have been taught to kill.
Step 4
Never turn your back on the dog. You cannot know how she is attuned in relation to your person.
Step 5
Follow these tips if you do come across an aggressive dog and he chose you as his victim. Don't try to run away from the dog. You will only provoke a chase and attack, awakening the hunter's instincts. Calmly standing in place, the dog perceives the victim as a dangerous adversary, ready to fight, and therefore is afraid.
Step 6
Step back from the attacking dog, slowly backing away, the main thing is not to take your eyes off her and do not express any signs of concern. Do not swing your arms or make any sudden movements that can provoke more aggression.
Step 7
Command the dog "Stand" or "Fu" in a confident voice. Perhaps the reflexes developed during past contact with people will stop her.
Step 8
Take a stone or a stick in your hands if the dog is still determined and the previous actions did not help. It is very difficult to scare a dog by swinging, so do not get lost, but hit. A weak blow can only embitter the animal, so hit with all your might - this will force the dog to leave the "battlefield". If the dog is very close, kick it in the stomach.
Step 9
Use special methods of protection against aggressive dogs. This can be a pepper spray, an ultrasound that repels dogs or a stun gun. From "folk" remedies, you can use a handful of ground red pepper.
