Children and dogs – Dog attack, Why?
There are hundreds of dog bites in the United States each year. I say with full confidence that a minimum of ninety-five percent of dog attacks or dog bites that people can be easily prevented or avoided. This includes all types of attacks by dogs, such as problems among children and dogs, both dogs to hunt or retrieve.
People often ask me: "A large number – Where's your proof?"
The proof is the simple truth. Thousands of people in this countryThe owners of the dog, but very few are trained to read body language of the dog or how to keep a dog in attack mode. Very few dog owners understand the behavior of the dog instinctive.
What usually happens when an adult and a child involved in an attack dog is something like this:
Gilmore (call it "Mary") and infant school (they call him "Joe") is to go on the sidewalk. On frames nowhere a big dog that looks really intimidating. Follow the old school "avoid contact with eyesand run – will see that they are not a threat, and do not find it. "terrified, makes them a run for it.
These poor people in it! This is a bubble, I'm happy to bust. Dogs are stimulated by the possibility of hunting. Mary and Joe turn into goals, such as the dog goes one way a victim. Instinctive dog behavior after their prey, or run the intruders.
MAG dog has decided not to prosecute you. But what you have done is help his confidence, makepowerful in his mind and encouraged his dogs with aggressive behavior. The next time you or someone else really bites.
Here is the correct way to handle such a meeting, and why.
Once again, the same scenario – Mary and her young son, Joe, is out for a walk. A big, scary dog suddenly appeared and began to charge. Mary had to push her baby behind her for safety, which shows that they are in control.
Mary, what should I do? Right shoulder and a lifthead, a body language that projects of power and control. Watch the dog – not with anger but with authority. Point of the dog. Now going to demand dog with confidence, while the animal. Say, "Hey, stop" – or "continue" or similar expressions, again with authority, but does not scream (as it would exacerbate the problem). If you do this, extend your hand toward him with a firm "stop" gesture. (N. shake hands and shouting, you, if you are a moreattractive target!)
After urging the direction of the dog with the prestigious "stop" words and gestures, hold EARTH. This applies unless the dog is moving forward. Then he proceeds to manage the situation to maintain.
Where am sure it will work? . Simple contact use guide dogs in stature and confidence to talk to each other. The dog always a dominant firm position. This is the dog of a lower grade, which had escaped. You must maintain control at all times. It works. SoI did it again and again otherwise "impossible" situations.
Use dog instinctive behavior in your favor, not against you – and not the victim of an attack dog!
