When a dog bites us, we may panic and be overwhelmed. However, in this case, it is crucial to remain calm and sane as incorrect coping methods can lead to more serious consequences. Here are some professional tips that can help you get rid of dog bites.
First of all, you should shout for help as soon as possible after being bitten by a dog. If you can get the attention of the people around you, they may be able to help you deal with this. It's even better if the dog owner is nearby, as they may know how to loosen their pet's mouth.
Second, don't try to get out of your dog's bite by struggling violently. It's in the nature of animals that the harder you struggle, the tighter they will bite you. Therefore, try to stay calm and relax your body slowly, avoiding the dog's eyes to avoid further irritating it.
In the absence of anyone else present, you need to act more cautiously. Do not move or back casually, this may stimulate aggression in the dog. Instead, you can slowly move in the direction of the dog's body so that it may start to retreat, giving you more space to look for an escape.
If none of the above steps can get the dog to loosen its mouth, you can look for some items to help yourself. For example, if there is a wooden stick or other hard object nearby, try inserting it into the dog's throat and make sure it gets stuck in the mouth. When a dog's throat is irritated, they usually instinctively spit out something, and that's when you have a chance to break free. If you don't have a stick, you can try finding something like sand, small rocks, etc., to stuff into the dog's mouth. These substances cause a reaction in the dog's respiratory tract, causing it to sneeze and spit out what it bites. At the same time, hard objects can also get stuck in the dog's mouth, buying you time to escape.
If there aren't any items available around, consider covering your dog's head with your own clothing to cover its eyes. In the event of a sudden loss of sight, the dog may subconsciously let go of its mouth. Once the dog loosens its mouth, immediately find the nearest water source to wash the injured area and apply some soapy alkaline liquid to disinfect the wound. Then, be sure to go to the nearest vaccination department within 24 hours to receive a rabies vaccination**.
For people who are vulnerable to dog attacks, carrying a dog repellent artifact is a wise choice. Tools such as the anti-dog sword can effectively prevent the occurrence of potentially dangerous situations.
In conclusion, it is most important to remain calm and sane in the face of a dog bite. With the right coping, you can minimize the damage and get out of the situation as quickly as possible. Remembering these tips and advice, and using them properly when needed, will help you better protect yourself from dog bites.
