8 Safety Tips To Prevent Deadly Dog Attacks You Should Know

Dogs are great friends and guards. They can scare the sh*t out of intruders. But unfortunately, dogs also have a riskier side you should know of so you can take precautions to avoid stories that touch the heart. We would prefer the National Assembly and State Houses of Assembly to make a law stipulating stiff penalties for dog owners who leave their dogs to roam the streets unleashed. But before that happens safety tips are here as first aid.

See 8 safety tips you should know of:

  1. Keep away from dogs with puppies: mother dogs with puppies are very jealous and protective and wouldn’t mind biting you if you are any where near their new puppies. The only thing on the mind of that normally friendly dog after birth is protecting its young ones from danger.

So when walking in a dark street, shine your eyes well well.

7. Never delay feeding your dog: Dogs that are used to eating raw meat may begin to see children as meat. Even the owner might be at great risk without knowing. A hungry dog is a potential danger to everyone around.

8. Don’t feed your dog raw meet if you don’t want it to get blood thirsty: if you condition your dog to eat meat with blood, they will develop a taste for blood. While that might be good for guard dogs, would you want a blood thirsty dog as a pet?
