Even the best dogs bite: how to avoid dog bites

Occasionally, even the kindest and sweetest of dogs will bite, and there’s always a reason.

Dogs are creatures of routine, they don’t like surprises, and just like people, they become grumpy and frightened when they’re injured.

“Dog Bite Basics” has some great tips on how to avoid dog bites:

• Watch how your dog behaves with other animals. Aggression there may lead to problems with people. You may want to get professional help.

• Take the dog to a veterinarian regularly. Dogs who are not feeling well or plagued by pests and parasites may be more inclined to bite. Don’t let your dog roam alone or spend a lot of time alone in the yard. Try not to surprise your dog. Fear or overexcitement may lead to biting.

• Let your dog eat in peace. Dogs can get defensive at the food dish. They can feel that way about their own special toys, too. Don’t disturb any dog caring for puppies.
