HOW TO APPROACH A SCARED DOG 1. Body Language: Lower your body, turn sideways, and avoid direct eye contact, which can be seen as a threat. Avoid leaning over or reaching for them. 2. Move Slowly: Proceed at an extremely slow pace—if you think you are moving too slowly, you are likely moving at the right speed. 3. Use Treats: Use high-value food (like chicken or cheese) to lure the dog. Toss treats away from you initially so they don't feel forced to get too close to you immediately. 4. Let Them Approach: Allow the dog to come to you to sniff. Do not try to pet them immediately. 5. Be Patient: Rescue can take time; do not force interaction. 6. Safety Precautions: Look for Fear Signals. Watch for tucked tails, shaking, or backing up.
