Stray Dogs In Nigeria by ebenck: 2:44am On Nov 12, 2021 |
There are two types of stray dogs: those who have lost their owners and those who have lived on the street all their lives. This article refers only to the first group for two reasons: the first - it is too great a risk to pick up an unvaccinated dog, and the second - it is more difficult to watch stray dogs. Some are very sociable to humans, and some prefer to live with their band in the wild. Also, if you spot a female who may have puppies around like Tibetan Spaniel - do not approach her, she may be very aggressive. It is easy to identify which dog belongs to the house and which does not: if it has a collar, if it is told and nurtured, and the degree of its understanding with humans. In case you have seen a stray dog, it is better to call the various associations: Let the animals live, SOS, animal cruelty, etc. You can also post on Facebook or report to the municipal hotline. Also, one can call a trainer who can better understand their language, most trainers are vaccinated so they can take more risk. First of all, it is important to emphasize the dog's point of view. A dog lost to its owner is under stress. Even if the dog is not naturally apprehensive, his behavior is completely different. The dog may feel very threatened by our body language. Behavior that seems natural and harmless to us can be interpreted for him as a character who pushes him into a corner and may hurt him. A dog that feels threatened has two options: escape, or attack. Two options that will greatly harm him and us. Some of our actions may work when the dog is calm and balanced. But when he is stressed, he will forget the language of man, and work according to his natural instincts. So we will have to make an effort and not act on our natural behavior, but adopt another behavior that will help find him his family. |
