subject: Self Defense-dog Attack Prevention Tips [print this page] With obesity being the biggest problem in the United States healthwise, millions of Americans are looking for ways to lose weight. Of course there is always a gym. My ex fiance had all kinds of weight-loss cookbooks, pieces of exercise equipment, and a membership to a weight-loss gym. Problem was, she never used any of them. But that's another story not for here.
One of the best ways to exercise is walking outdoors. It is low impact on the knees. If you're not worried about that then cycling or jogging comes in a close second or third.
A constant threat to this great outdoor exercise is being attacked by dogs. Close to 5 million Americans every year get attacked by dogs with nearly 1,000,000 of them being hospitalized. Of that number, nearly half are kids.
It is now a serious problem and only getting worse.
Here's how to stop the dog attack with dog attack prevention tips.
The best dog defense for dog attacks prevention is:
1.Don't go near a dog you don't know.
2.If you have that you resistible urge to pet a dog-let him smell you first.
3.Never run away from a dog.
4.The old expression, "let sleeping dogs lie" is great advice.
5.Some breeds are more aggressive than others. But all dogs have that instinct to bite. So don't aggravate them.
6.Be wary around all strange dogs.
7.Have self defense products with you when you're outdoors exercising.
The best self defense is the Mace pepper gun which has a range of 25 feet and is loaded with 10% oleoresin capsicum (OC) for the best protection against dog attacks.
Follow these tips for the checklist and carry some defensive tools and you may avoid a dangerous dog attack.
A 10% solution of OC spray is illegal in some jurisdictions. So check the internet or your local sheriff's department first before getting some.
P.S. The telescopic stun baton and pepper gun works very well on human assailants too.
