Some people are naturally dog lovers, while others always feel nervous about being near one. Even if you have a dog in the family you may not be happy about being close to dogs you don’t know.
Some people are naturally dog lovers, while others always feel nervous about being near one. Even if you have a dog in the family you may not be happy about being close to dogs you don’t know. There could be many reasons for this – maybe there are one or two breeds you don’t quite trust. Maybe you were attacked by a dog when you were a kid. Whatever the reason might be you should figure out a way to protect yourself and to do the right thing should you ever find yourself in a situation where a dog attack could or did happen.

Firstly it pays to stay well clear of any dog you come close to, even if it is on a leash. If you come into contact with a dog that is loose, don’t run. A dog that could be about to attack will stop and look at you. If it was panting before, it won’t be now. Most people know not to stare straight at a dog, as the dog will see this as a threatening act. If it feels threatened it will be more likely to attack you.

Another thing you should try is to turn slightly away from the dog to ensure you are not facing it head on. Make sure you can still see it out of the corner of your eye though; don’t turn away completely otherwise you won’t see an attack coming if it does decide to charge at you.

If you regularly go out walking or jogging and come into contact with dogs out for walks with their owners, make sure you go armed with an electronic dog repeller. This doesn’t hurt the dog but it will prevent it from attacking you if the situation arises. It will also prevent you from being hurt, and all you have to do is to tuck the repeller in your pocket so you can grab it easily if the occasion should arise.

The idea behind the electronic dog repeller is pretty simple. It emits a noise that you won’t be able to hear – but a dog will. The dog won’t like it and its natural instinct will be to get away from you, since you appear to be the one making the noise. The best dog repellers also have an in built light that flashes at an extremely high frequency. This will blind the dog for a short period of time, giving you time to get to a safe place.

As with all types of security alarms, this is one you hope you’ll never have the need to use. But if you do go jogging or walking on a regular basis and you’re worried about coming into contact with a dog that is out of control, it pays dividends to have one of these alarms on you. It’ll give you peace of mind and you only have to pay a few dollars to get hold of one in the first place. Doesn’t that sound like the best possible solution to have in your pocket?
