Steps for staying safe around dogs 🐕

The majority of dogs don’t bite unless provoked or frightened but knowing how to stay safe around dogs is important information everyone should be aware of.

By knowing how to treat animals with kindness, and how to safely interact with dogs, we can create a better and safer world for all.

🌟 Share this post to raise awareness on rabies and how people can protect themselves 🌟

🐕 Rabies: myth v fact

Part 5...

With 99% of human rabies cases being caused by an infected dog bite, fear of the disease leads to the persecution and death of healthy dogs.

But this does not stop the disease spreading.

Not only is the culling of dogs immensely cruel, but it also is scientifically proven to have no effect on rabies transmission or overall population.

New dogs quickly move into these areas to take advantage of increased food resources and territory.

A healthy, vaccinated free-roaming dog population is the best protection for people from rabies.

When communities know that dogs are vaccinated and are safe to be around, it reduces the fear and leads to improved treatment of dogs.

No dog deserves to die because of the fear around rabies.

We are working to protect people and dogs from this cruel disease.
