  1. 4 TIPS FOR PREVENTING DOG BITES IN TEXAS

  2. UNDERSTAND DOG BODY LANGUAGE Dogs communicate their intentions through body language, often long before they resort to biting. Learning to recognize these signals is paramount. Avoid direct eye contact, slow, deliberate movements, and sudden gestures. Slowly back away and allow the dog to move away freely.

  3. RESPECT DOG SPACE AND BOUNDARIES Never approach a dog without the owner's permission, even if it appears friendly. Remember that every dog is an individual, and their reactions can be unpredictable based on breed, temperament, past experiences, and even their current mood. Respect the dog’s personal space – avoid reaching over or patting a dog's head without invitation.

  4. SECURE YOUR OWN DOG Responsible dog ownership is crucial in bite prevention. This means ensuring your dog is properly trained and supervised at all times. Use a secure leash when walking your dog, even in familiar areas. Texas has specific leash laws, varying by city and county, so familiarize yourself with your local ordinances.

  5. BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS Pay attention to your environment. Avoid approaching dogs that are eating, sleeping, playing with toys, or guarding their territory. Be particularly cautious of dogs who are chained or confined to a small space, as they may feel threatened and less able to escape a perceived threat. If you encounter a loose dog, avoid direct contact and maintain a safe distance. Report loose dogs to the appropriate authorities immediately.
