The topic of "civilized dog breeding" has been talked about almost every year, and now because of some people's uncivilized dog breeding behavior, the word "dog lover" has become an "antonym" to a certain extent. As a dog owner, when taking the baby out, you must remember to "lead well" and "short", otherwise you may lose the big because of the small.

Is the controversy over girls touching leash dogs a problem or an education problem?
Recently, in Shenzhen, Guangdong, an aunt led 2 dogs on the street, and a 2-year-old girl next to her saw the cute dog and stepped forward, the result may be that the dog recognized the birth, and the girl's finger was bitten.
The girl after being bitten immediately cried, and the mother on the side also checked the injury for the first time, but as the owner of the dog, she did not stop at all, but turned around and led the two dogs to leave the scene.
For the attitude of the dog owner, the child's mother said that she could not accept it: she left the scene without saying a word, without compensation or apologies.
Originally, the child was bitten by a dog, which was a matter with a clear division of responsibility, but netizens couldn't argue. Some netizens believe: obviously the dog owner has been leashed, it is the child who takes the initiative to step forward, the main reason is that the parents are playing with mobile phones on the side and do not take good care of the children;
But some netizens think: if the dog bites, it is best to wear a mouth mask when you go out.
This matter can be described as "public and reasonable", but in my opinion, 2 or 3-year-old children are still at the age when their logical thinking ability is problematic, and in their eyes, they like to be close to small animals.
But the way they get close is to play with it the more they like it, so it is easy to "provoke" small animals.
For small animals, especially domestic pet dogs, their personality is not stable, or the owner does not have good rules, and it will suddenly occur when facing strangers.
Therefore, the parents of the children are primarily responsible for this matter, and the fundamental reason is that they have not fulfilled their responsibility of care, and the dog owner is secondarily responsible, even if the dog is on a leash but does not wear a muzzle, at least after the dog has hurtful behavior, it should be liable.

Why do dogs always love to attack children? How can parents avoid it?
The spring and summer season is the "manic period" of animals, affected by climate and physiological characteristics, and dogs in this period are very aggressive. In addition, compared with adults, children are smaller and do not seem to have any deterrent power on dogs, so they are easily injured by dogs.
Therefore, parents should pay extra attention when taking their babies out, and tell their children the following precautions to minimize the chance of contact between children and dogs.
1. Do not take the initiative to touch the dog and block the contact between the child and the dog from the source;
2. When encountering an unfamiliar dog, keep still so as not to make the dog feel that he is aggressive towards it;
3. If you encounter a dog coming forward to "smell", do not dodge, let alone run around in fear. Dogs love to chase people the most, often the more children run they chase, this time should stand in place, the dog after smelling, will walk away;
4. If you are pounced on by a dog, it is best to hold your neck and ears with your hands, shrink your head, and curl up your body into a ball, which can protect important parts from damage to the greatest extent.

Parents should know how to deal with a child's bite by a dog
According to data from the official website of the World Health Organization, 40% of the victims of animal bites suspected of having rabies are under the age of 15, which shows that children in the group bitten by animals have become high-risk groups.
In daily life, we can often hear about dog bites, especially children, so if the child is accidentally scratched and bitten by a dog, what to do?
Judge by the degree of exposure of children after being licked and scratched by dogs.
- If there is only ordinary contact with the animal or feeding, and the skin part being licked is intact, then it generally does not need to be treated;
- If the child's skin is lightly bitten or slightly scratched without bleeding, the wound needs to be treated immediately and the rabies vaccine should be given promptly;
- If a child's skin is bitten, scratched, bleeding, or a broken skin wound is licked, it is considered serious, and the wound should be treated immediately and the rabies vaccine should be injected.
To deal with children's bites and scratches by animals, the most important thing parents should do is to "rinse". Turn the faucet or shower head to the maximum, rinse the wound, and then wash the wound with soapy water or other alkaline detergent. Alkaline cleaners can largely flush the virus onto the wound, thereby minimizing damage.
In general, what parents can do is to clean and debride the wound after the child is injured, before going to the vaccine, and then go to the hospital as soon as possible to get vaccinated.
