Dog owners often encounter dog fights, and the reasons are complicated. Sometimes, when I take my Pomeranian out for a walk and play with other dogs, I get into fights with strange dogs for no apparent reason, which often makes me sad. The owner has a headache and feels distressed. Friends often ask me: How should we deal with Pomeranian fights, especially fights with strange dogs. The following is a little bit of my experience for readers' reference.

Understand your dog’s personality

First of all, you must understand the personality of your dog: This point is pointed out by the way. If your dog has a good temperament and is not easy to fight, then that is a different matter. But if your dog has a bad temper and gets angry easily, you should keep it away from strange dogs. If both dog owners are holding their own dogs, generally the puppies will not really fight, because in order to avoid injury, everyone will pull their own puppies away in time.

Trick one: deal with "big" stray dogs

It’s a tricky situation when a large stray dog ​​takes the initiative to challenge you, but to be honest, this situation is relatively rare in today’s communities. Most stray dogs are abandoned by their owners due to illness, bad temper, etc. of. Therefore, when you encounter a large stray dog, you should first remain calm and pick up your Pomeranian immediately. This action can usually avoid a direct conflict between them. If time is tight or you are too late, please remember: when dogs are fighting, you must not use your legs to block or kick the stray dog, because obvious protective actions will not calm the situation, on the contrary, it will only This will irritate the dog even more, and even more frighteningly, it may bite you as a result.

Shouting and threatening loudly is also a good method, and it can also have a certain deterrent effect on stray dogs. However, if this method fails, then you can only run away with your beloved dog. At this time, If the stray dog ​​is still chasing after it and seems unwilling to give up, you can pick up some branches or small sticks on the roadside to drive it away, but be careful not to hurt yourself.

Trick No. 2: Deal with the provocation of "little" stray dogs

The roar of small dogs is mostly a bluff. When they encounter a larger dog, they are very scared, so they bar their teeth and look like they are going to attack. This usually manifests as barking at the big dog, or even taking the initiative to charge towards it. attack. But they were just pretending to fight. In fact, they were very timid and did not dare to do anything serious. At this time, you will be more passive. If you keep pulling your dog back, the stray dog ​​will push forward and get closer. At this time, if you loosen the following ropes slightly (but do not completely loosen them), in order to let your dog rush forward, grasp the fireWhen the time comes, pull back again. This simple method can usually scare the vicious dog away. Fortunately, this method has been tried and tested. Please remember: the key to this method is that you cannot completely let go of the rope, otherwise your dog will think you are giving a hint and may rush to bite the dog.

Trick No. 3: When two dogs are equally powerful

If the two parties are about the same size and ignore each other, it is recommended that you refer to the above two tactics. In short, hide if you can, scare if you can, and stay away if you can't afford to provoke. If none of this works, shouting loudly will not work, and due to some circumstances, you can’t hold your dog all of a sudden. In this case, it may be a good way to simply let it go, that is, let go of your dog and let it go. They fight. The reason is simple: when the situation is evenly matched, there is no need to worry about your dog suffering a big loss. Although this scene is a bit shocking, there is no other way. It's like a fight between lightweight boxers. It won't cause much harm to both parties. If a big dog fights and you try to stop it, it's a dangerous move. Many friends try to persuade the dog to fight but fail. However, we are bitten by a dog, and in severe cases, we may even go to the hospital. You must know that we are more easily injured than dogs, and our recovery speed is far slower than that of dogs. At this moment, it is recommended that you focus on self-protection.

The above are some tips on how to avoid dog fights. The specific situation must be analyzed in detail. Dogs’ temperaments and personalities vary greatly, and sometimes we can’t understand why they fight. However, we suggest that when encountering strange dogs, it is better to avoid them. Better to avoid it.
