Dog Bite Prevention Week takes place this week but it has nothing to do with avoiding dogs. It means awareness and safety, and for SCAS it also means safe interaction.

Around 4.5 million Americans are bitten by dogs each year, and the majority are children. So I spoke with AVMA President Dr. Michael Q. Bailey about tips for keeping kids - and dogs - safe during Dog Bite Prevention Week and beyond: www.forbes.com/sites/jenree... #PreventDogBites #dogs #kids
Image depicts a brown-ish black dog looking into the camera, with text stating, "PREVENT DOG BITES: If an unfamiliar dog approaches you, stay still and avoid direct eye contact", in light of National Dog Bite Prevention Week.
If a dog you don’t know comes up you, don’t panic or run. Stop, stand still and slowly back away from the dog. Stay quiet and calm and avoid direct eye contact with the dog.

🐶It’s National #DogBitePreventionWeek! Any dog can bite, even one that seems friendly. To be safe, always ask permission before you pet someone’s dog. After you ask the owner, allow the dog to come to you before you pet it.
