HELLO THERE!

Good question, indeed!

First of all, let me tell you something, keeping in mind that Prevention is better than Cure.



Never try to cuddle a street dog. Although a street dog has much more tolerance than a pet dog, he is completely unknown to you. Dogs have a sense that you are his enemy, so if he feels unsafe, he might attack you.

Never try to make friendship with a dog, even if he is other's pet, without the prior permission of his owner: I am also a dog lover, still I have to say these. This is because you don't know how that dog is kept at home, and how his owner treats him. If he is chained all the day, he becomes aggressive day by day. So, firstly you should ask his owner about his behaviour.

If you enrage a dog, keep calm: I know that it is easier to say than to do, because keeping calm and cool is the toughest thing in the world. Dogs can sense panic. Hence, if you panic before him, he can be more sure-footed that you are afraid, hence the chances of attacking will be more.

Never try to run away, even if you are fast: Dogs have an inbuilt capability and a sense of chasing, which makes the man's best friend, man's enemy. When you enrage a dog, what you need to do is just to keep calm, and stand in one place, with no expression in your face. Don't try to shout. If you shout, the dog may get scared and attack you.


So, these were some tips.


In case a dog bites you, here are the things to do:

Wash the area with soap and antiseptic (dilute Dettol solution can work).
The dog is rabid or not, you must immediately go to a doctor, so that the rabies infection cannot sieze you. You must also take certain injections which he gives you.



Tips to escape a dog attack:

I have seen in a Television show, that if a dog attacks you, how to be safe. This tip may not work for women, this is only for men.

When the dog tries to jump on you, quickly manage to take off your dress. Wrap your dress around your wrist and try to guard your throat (because the main target of dogs is throat). Now, insert your hand (the one on which the dress is wrapped) inside the dog's mouth.

So now, the dog is sensing that he is successful in attacking you. Now what you have to do, is to pull out your hand of the dress, keeping the dress in his mouth. Slowly slowly pull back your hand from the dress. The dog will without doubt hold the dress firmly in his mouth, because according to him, it's your body part which he has bitten. So now, you are free, with your dress inside his mouth.

Retreat slowly (don't hurry) and escape.



THAT's ALL.
THANKS!

If a dog attacks:

  • Keep your hands and arms in front of your body to protect them.
