Here are some suggestions if approached by an aggressive dog: * Don’t make direct hard eye contact. Body language counts * Turn sideways, giving a calming signal. DO NOT RUN. * Keep your arms and hands down and tight by your side The following defensive tools may work on some dogs: * Air horn * Where legal, pepper spray * Direct Stop is a Citronella spray (available at PetSmart and PetCo * Defendabrella - a small tote umbrella to suddenly pop open to scare the dog * Having a “sacraficial” garment (old shirt, sweater) around your waist to offer up to the dog instead of you. * Always carry your cell phone and call for help if you can. A Tired Dog is a Happy Dog!! I think with proper puppy training this might not have happened.
