What Risks Should Children Understand When Around Dogs?
In cities like Bangalore, children frequently encounter pet dogs and community dogs. Understanding basic dog behaviour and safety rules helps prevent accidents and promotes safe interaction between children and dogs.
- Defensive reactions when a dog feels scared, threatened, or stressed
- Aggression triggered by sudden movements, loud noises, or unfamiliar actions
- Protective behaviour when dogs guard food, territory, toys, or puppies
- Misinterpretation of dog body language such as growling, stiff posture, or warning signals
