Dogs do not like sharp and loud sounds, and some are even afraid. In this regard, you need to be careful when walking your pets in winter.
During the New Year holidays and in the evenings, firecrackers and fireworks often pop. The dog may get scared, break loose from the leash and run away.
Here's what to do if you happen to find someone else's dog.
Approach the animal carefully, try to be as calm and friendly as possible, advises dog handler Vladimir Golubev in an interview with Pravda.ru.
If you happen to meet a strange pet on the street, you need to try not to frighten the animal and establish contact with it.
You may notice that the dog is scared, confused, it is rushing around or trying to hide, sniffing passers-by.
You need to speak quietly to the animal, let it sniff your palm. All this time you need to watch the dog's reaction.
It is important not to frighten the dog, otherwise it may bite and run away.
If the dog has calmed down, you need to check for the presence of a collar, a sign with the address and contact information of the owner.
It is possible that the dog will have a kennel mark or a chip.
If there are no such signs, then you need to provide information about the animal found.
