Tips to avoid a dog bite

Dog bite advice:

• Don't run past a dog. The dog's natural instinct is to chase and catch prey.
• If a dog threatens you, don't scream. Avoid eye contact. Try to remain motionless until the dog leaves, then back away slowly until the dog is out of sight.
• Don't approach a strange dog, especially one that's tethered or confined.
• While letter carriers are discouraged from petting animals, people who choose to pet dogs should always let a dog see and sniff them before petting the animal.
• If you believe a dog is about to attack you, try to place something between yourself and the dog, such as a backpack or a bicycle.
• Owners should get their dogs obedience training.
• When a letter carrier comes to your home, keep your dog inside, away from the door.
• Don't let your child take mail from the letter carrier in the presence of your dog. Your dog's instinct is to protect the family.
