What to do if you're attacked by a dog
so you're enjoying your morning run in
the park before work and then suddenly a
stray dog runs up to you looking like
it's ready to attack you ?
well what should you do in a situation like this
should you run should you fight should
you give them a dog biscuit that might
be a good idea give them something else
to munch on ز
Here are the most helpful recommendations of experts on how to keep yourself safe from dogs or what to do if you're attacked .Who is at risk
most of the time joggers cyclers and other fast-moving people get attacked the thing is dogs react to movement and it triggers a chase instinct plus they may consider some area theirs and if you trespass in their property they might try to protect it , so what to do if you
see that a dog is ready to attack you ??
Part one : Avoiding the attack don't panic
Many people believe that dogs and some
other animals can kind of sense human
fear well it's not that they really
sense the fear it's just that they
become more confident when they see that
their prey is intimidated so no matter
how hard it is .
try to stay calm if the dog sees that it can't scare you it might think you're a dangerous person to mess with .Don't dispel its illusions
don't try to rot first things first
dogs are faster well at least most of
them accept this fact and relax there's
no chance you can run away it's not even
worth trying secondly running will
provoke the dogs instinct to chase so
you might create a problem yourself even
if the dog didn't mean any harm in the
first place stand still
if you were running slow down to a walk
and then stop completely
most likely the dog saw you as a threat
when you were moving fast the threat
must be eliminated either by you or by
the dog we prefer the former so if you
stopped moving chances are the dog will lose interest in you and walk away also it's better to
stand sideways to the dog this way you
will appear slimmer to it which means
you are less of a threat .
Don't make eye contact :
Direct eye contact may make the dog more aggressive it may be a reason for an attack your best course of action is to keep the dog in sight but avoid direct eye contact this will signal to the dog that you are not dangerous and it can let you go unharmed .
Make fists no not for fighting : Fists are
necessary to protect your fingers from
getting bitten off even if the dog bites
your fist it is much easier to break
free from that distract the dog with
another object if you have something in
your hand threw it in another direction
it can be a bottle of water your bag or
anything else if you have nothing you
are ready to throw away pretend that you
are picking something up from the ground
and throw it far away after all dogs are
very playful animals maybe this one
wasn't attacking you but trying to
attract your attention all kidding aside
distracting the dog might give you the
necessary time to escape .
Command the dog to back away if the dog doesn't want things to go nicely you have no choice but to be rough to tell it in a firm
voice no or back away make sure you
sound confident and strong if it sound
like a five-year-old child which is
forgivable in this situation the dog
will sense it and you will be an even
bigger danger...
But what if you couldn't avoid the attack what you to do to get as little damage as possible
part 2 : defending yourself :
fight back if the dog starts biting you
even after you have demonstrated all
your negotiation skills you'll have to
do all it takes to protect yourself try
to hit the dog in the nose in the throat
or the back of the head a good smack
might give you the time to escape.
Yell for help dogs can kill you must realize
that so it's perfectly okay to ask for
help maybe somebody will hear you and
help you get rid of the dog.
Protect your face and neck whatever it
takes ,don't let the dog get to your vital
parts your neck or your face if you do
you won't be able to protect yourself
anymore try to put something between you
and the dog like that mailman over
there anyways use your weight to press
the dog against the ground it's only
weapon is its mouth full of teeth try to
avoid that end if you manage to keep
safe from that you will win the fight
your goal is to immobilize the head you
can do that by pressing the dog's neck
okay let's say that you show the dog who
is boss it gets scared and runs away
what should you do after part three
after the attack see a doctor even the
smallest wound may be an open door for
an infection use water to wash the wound
and a bandage to stop the bleeding see a
doctor even if you don't think you
should the dog might be rabid so a
series of shots might be necessary
report the dog call the authorities and
inform them about the accident
describe everything you can remember
this information might save someone
else's life tell us about your
