How To Approach a Stray Dog


If you see a stray dog, you may be lost as to how to approach it. After all, this is a strange dog. So what do you do?


The first thing you should check for is if it’s wearing a service dog vest. This vest will tell you that it is a service dog. It is trained to provide help. The best thing you can do is to follow it and see if its owner needs help.


On the other hand, if there is no vest on the dog and he does not seem to want to approach you, find a way to check his identification. You can try calling him to see his ID or tag. If a dog is friendly, he will approach you and allow you to pet him. If you have the chance, you can bring him to the vet or animal shelter to check for microchips.


Finally, if the dog growls at you it is better not to approach it. You can call the animal control officer or your vet clinic Lakewood Ranch, FL to take care of the stray dog. Visit this website Sarasota Animal Medical Center to know more.
