As a pet owner, your first duty is to see that your pet grows up right to be a happy animal. So, if you make the mistake of chaining him for long periods unattended, you’re asking to have an aggressive dog. Such dogs suffer personality quirks when tied and become aggressive. It’s better to keep them fenced and away from the sound of noisy kids whose high-pitched sounds lead them to react by biting innocent kids.
Teach your kid not to run away or scream when the dog is found to be snarling since this can only cause the dog to attack the child. Once he attacks your kid, there’s no stopping him since he will react to chemical stimulus not rational thought.
Besides, no matter how well trained your dog is, dogs in general don’t consider children to be figures of authority. Then, children often stare at animals purely out of wonder but dogs feel threatened by this person, of the same height as them, who bores his eyes unashamedly into theirs. In such circumstances, any dog may bite as a measure of self-defense. If the owner of a dog permits your child to come over to his dog, the child should present his closed fist to the dog to sniff. A fist is a good idea as it protects the child’s fingers from being nipped by the dog. As a dog owner, you can minimize the chances of your dog being a biter by socializing him early in life. For this reason, it is better to buy from a breeder who has already begun socializing his pups before attempting to sell them so that the younger of them is exposed to
gentle kids, making him a tolerant individual.
