• Do not leave young children around the animal alone.
  
• Do not go near a dog that is chained up.
  
• Try to put an item between you and the animal, so that the animal bites that first.
  
• Do not try to separate two fighting animals.
  
• Do not try to pet an animal in an empty vehicle.
  
• Do not walk too close to the animals’ yard without a fence.
  
• Do not go near animals you do not know.
  
• Do not bother the animals while they are eating.
  
• Ask the owner of the animal on the leash if the animal bites before running to touch it.
