A dog is a man's best friend, but not all animals share this point of view.

In any case, you shouldn't test the truth of this statement on yourself.

In this article you will find some tips on how to behave in case of a dog attack.

1. Don't run: Large dogs do not attack from above, from the side, or from below, but directly. If you try to run away, you will expose your back to the dog. Instead, if the dog decides to attack, try to dodge when it jumps.

2. Don't wave your arms: trying to punch a dog in the head is unlikely to cause harm, but is more likely to cause aggression. A dog's weak points are the stomach, ears, and groin area.

3. Don't look: It's best to lower your head and look away. In animals, this is a sign of submission, and the dog may lose interest in you.

4. Don't move: If the dog attacks and you can't get away, don't try to push it away with your hands. You could lose your fingers, so it's best to keep your hands clenched into fists.
