Tips to Keep Kids Safe Around Dog
2

• There are approximately 3 million dogs in
  Australia out of which a small percentage of them
  have been aggressive towards kids. Sometimes, in
  extreme cases, they even bite the kids.
• 60 of these dog bites happen either at home or
  backyard of friends, neighbours or familys
  house.
• The risk is even more for kids that are under 10
  years. Hence, as a pet-parent, you need to ensure
  that kids are taught to be safe around dogs.
• It is crucial for pet owners to keep in mind
  that kids under 4 years should not be left alone,
  even with a family pet.
• Let us now look at tips that will help you keep
  kids safe around your pet dog?

• TIPS
• Educate your kids to take the toys back from the
  dog and also provide another toy or treat to the
  dog whenever they take something from him.
• If your dog is aging, regularly visit
  veterinarian and ensure that he is fully fit
  before asking your kids to be close with him.
  This will avoid mishaps like the dog being
  anxious or irritable in front of the kids.
• Do not isolate your dog if you feel that your
  kids are not safe around him. Instead, take the
  help of a veterinarian so that there is no
  further damage to the pet.
• Have baby gates in the house so that the dog and
  the kids do not face each other when there is no
  one around.

• TIPS
• Relax your dog by tendering them around the
  ears, tail and head with treats. If the dog is in
  a relaxed position give him adequate treats.
• Kids should be given the opportunity to provide
  treats to the dogs and take them for walks along
  with someone so that the dog feels he is part of
  the family.
• Teach the kids to play ball with the dog and
  enjoy the activity. The same way teach the dog to
  follow the command of the kid and give them
  treats when the task gets completed successfully.
  
• If you are bringing the baby for the very first
  time at home ensure that the dog is fully fed and
  his daily chores are not affected. This way the
  dog will not have ill feelings towards the baby
  for the changes happening around.

Dogs need to feel that they are part of a big
family and the kids should feel safe around them.
Teaching the kids to understand the body language
of the dog goes a long way in ensuring that they
have a good time with the pet.
