It is possible that the dog will decide to defend itself.

In order not to frighten, alarm or provoke the animal, you must not bend over it.

Want to pet your pet? Knee down or squat. If you do this, you won't make your dog anxious.

Your four-legged friend will take your actions calmly.

Another important point

When kneeling or squatting, try not to look the dog directly in the eyes.

A direct look can be perceived by the pet as a threat. It is possible that the animal will start barking loudly or even biting.

Earlier, dog owners were told how to properly walk their pets in cold weather .
