VIDEO OF ADVICE ABOUT HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF/YOUR DOG/CHILD IN THE EVENT OF A DOG ATTACK
www.nzherald.co.nz...
I have just viewed the above video as the result of a news article in the N.Z. Herald around a horrendous attack on an elderly woman being attacked on her mobility scooter.
I wanted to share the above link as there is some good advice in the video that accompanies this article around what people can do to help avoid dog attacks, either by yourself or walking your dog, and what not to do in the case of an attack.
Especially because we can't always be with our children it is important that they are aware of what they can do to help protect themselves. Being aware is so important especially for little ones who are often at face level with a dog.
