Cameras Are Everywhere. Use Your Dog Wisely

By

Alex Bois

The consequences of not protecting
your family are clear. Today, protecting them may also come with consequences. Know
how to protect your family while decreasing your liability.

There are
security cameras everywhere and everyone has a smartphone. If you are
threatened outside your home in all likelihood it’s going to be recorded. When
it comes to bystanders with phones what are they going to record? Unless it is
a violent threat it may not draw much attention. What is going to draw
attention is you with your dog by your side showing aggression. If the
perpetrator has been successfully deterred he or she may be backing away from
you and your dog. 

Unfortunately,
you now look like the aggressor and the perpetrator like the victim! Imagine if
that’s when the police show up. They will get out with guns drawn – towards
you.

This is
exactly the same problem people face who have concealed carry permits and use a
gun do defend their life. Even defending yourself with hands and fists causes
the same potential legal consequences. Of course the answer isn’t to go unprotected
in order to limit your liability.

Our solution
is two fold. As soon as you are aware of the threat you give the command
“Police” to your dog. That will instruct your dog to come to your
side, turn on (show aggression) and remain by your side regardless of whether
you move forward, backwards or sideways. What you do immediately after giving
the command is just as important. You lift your hands in front of your chest,
palms facing the threat while backing up and repeating “CALL THE POLICE, I’M
AFRAID FOR MY LIFE, CALL THE POLICE”.  In
doing so you are repeatedly supporting your dog protecting you by repeating the
protection command “POLICE” and will be clearly communicating to anyone
watching, or recording, who is the victim and who is the perpetrator.
