Self-Defense Against Dog Attacks - How To Defend Against Dog Attacks

Ways to defend yourself against a dog attack
When you are afraid that a dog is about to attack you, it may be a frightening scenario.
Make yourself stiff and immobile.
If you flail your arms or kick your legs, the dog may interpret your motions as menacing.
Make no eye contact with the dog, since this may provoke a lunge.
Instead of facing the dog and making eye contact, stand sideways to him and keep him in your peripheral view.
