Prevent Attacks When Possible By Taking Precautions
While animal attacks are not always preventable, there are precautions you can take to keep yourself and your family safe from an aggressive dog. When out and about with your family in your neighborhood or at a park that dogs and their owners frequent, take these simple measures:
-
Keep an eye on children when strange or large dogs are around.
-
Don’t approach or allow your children to approach strange dogs.
-
Do your best to read the animal’s body language for cues of distress or aggression.
-
Do not make sudden movements toward or around an aggressive dog.
Teach your children the warning signs of a potentially dangerous situation, and if attacked, report the incident at once, seek medical attention for your injuries and call us.
