Pennsylvania dog bites are unfortunately one of the risks of the warmer weather. We love dogs at Purchase & George but we also know that irresponsible dog owners and poorly trained dogs can cause great harm, particularly when children are bitten. Talk to your kids about these dog safety tips to help them avoid or minimize the risk of a Pennsylvania dog attack.
- Do not approach an unfamiliar dog
- Do not run from a dog or scream
- When approached by an unfamiliar dog, remain motionless (e.g., be still like a tree)
- If knocked over by a dog, roll over and be still (e.g., be still like a log)
- Do not play with a dog unless an adult is present
- Tell an adult about stray animals or dogs behaving unusually
- Do not make direct eye contact with a dog
- Do not disturb a dog that is sleeping, eating or caring for puppies
- Let a dog see and sniff you before you try to pet it
- * If you've been bitten, tell an adult right away
