Some cool info to protect your chilld and dog

Beware: Dogs Play Can Turn Ugly Fast When Children Are Involved

Dogs often play with children. If you've ever seen that interaction, then you recognize what you are reading. If you have not, so take note. This information can help protect your child and your dog.

When dogs play, they are obsessed, and kids can get excited. This can be a deadly combination.

Most if not all children are ignorant about what dogs have played their pets. Everything they have in mind is to have fun with the dog. This usually means a certain kind of toy. Outdoors, it is often a ball.

When dogs are occupied, all they can think for that ball. Some will become possessive of the toy, while others will be happy to bring back so you can make games.

Now let them out - in the heat and humidity of a summer day.

Children will romp in all weather conditions. If they get hot, they seem not to notice and will continue to run around. Dogs are the same, except that they have a little foresight and will to have a cool place to rest when the heat gets too much for them to find.

Because children are not aware of the heat, they will keep trying to play with the dog, even after he decided to take a break. They do not understand why the dog has stopped playing. And they do not understand the importance of the actions of the dog.

That is when things can turn ugly.

When a dog is overheated, it can easily be excited. If it is not allowed to recover from the heat, it will not be very happy to have been forced from his resting place. If a child continues to do, he or she is bitten.

There is another way of doing this again ugly.

Dogs play in all weather, too, but they know when they need a break. A hot dog, playing on a hot, humid summer day is a risk of an attack of sunstroke. It's no different than what happens in humans, making it overheated by exercising on a hot day.

None of these scenarios must occur. They can easily be avoided by a little workout. Children must learn the dangers of a hot, tired and aggravated dog can present.

Teach kids to recognize the signs.

1) If a dog is hot and / or tired, he would isolate the game.

2) If a dog is overheated, his tongue hanging completely out of his mouth as he tries to cool itself

3) The blood vessels of the face will swell as the blood pumping through his system and he is hot.

4) Often a hot dog in the eyes larger than normal.

Teach them what to do.

1) Allow the dog to rest in a cool place he chooses.

2) Make sure your dog has a fresh, cold water to drink during the game.

3) Do not try to torment the dog or him to play while in that state.

Explain what can happen if they ignore these rules.

1) The dog may bite if he feels that he suffered.

2) Even friendly dogs can bite if the situation is right.

3) If the dog becomes overheated, they may be a heat stroke, which could mean attacks.

4) The dog can die if he is no cold water and let cool.

If you have a dog, a dog and children or just children, make sure that children understand that this is how to act around a dog. Children will not realize that while a dog plays, he also pursues his hunting instinct.

When all is said and done, remember that. For the dog, not all dogs to play.
