Dogs can sometimes be aggressive and dangerous.
Therefore, it is important to know how to behave correctly in a situation when there is an angry dog next to you.
How to behave around an aggressive dog on the street
When you encounter an aggressive dog, do not turn your back on it or run away.
It is better to hug the nearest tree or fence. The most important thing is not to shout or wave your arms or legs.
As soon as the animal realizes that you are not dangerous, it will lose interest and leave.
Do not attack first and do not respond to aggression with aggression.
If the animals start barking, stand calmly, preferably with your back to a tree or fence, so that the dogs cannot get around you from behind and knock you down.
It is better to apply protective blows to the dog in those places that are most sensitive for it: the nose, tailbone, ears.
You can use pepper spray. During an attack, it is recommended to scream, but in as rude a voice as possible.
If a bite cannot be avoided, protect your face and throat.
How not to behave around dogs
Don't touch the dog's owner. You should also not sneak up, suddenly and loudly address its owner, behave aggressively, or make sudden movements.
Don't try to give your dog commands. Thus, you claim the place of the owner whom the dog protects.
