Attacks by unrestrained dogs are in the news dailey . There is a difference between aggressive dogs and attacking dogs . The difference can change drasticly by your own behavior .
Aggressive dogs are terrirorial and bark when you cross their line . Face them without establishing eye contact as you slowly back away from their perceived line . Do not turn and run . That may cause them to attack .
Other dogs may simply attack with little or no warning . Scary as heck , but they can be dealt with with a survivable outcome for you .
Sans firearm and the reaction time/ skill to use it your best defense is your hands : Offer your weak hand with arm cocked and fingers folded over the palm as a target . When the dog goes for the target you meet him more than half way with the intent of stuffing as much of your hand and arm down his throat as possible and keeping it there . Quick fix from there is a solid punch to the rib cage just behind the point of the shoulder to stop the heart .
Failing that strike directly to both eye sockets and then begin choking with your strong hand . You must keep the teeth/ jaws
controlled with the weak hand / arm until the dead jaws relax .
Adrenalin will mask the pain while it is happening but you will need medical attention when the ordeal is over . You are going to get hurt less to win than to lose .
