Livestock Dogs
from DF Connection Hosted by Dirty Freehub
When it comes to cycling in rural areas, there is a chance you may cross paths with dogs..most likely livestock dogs. How do you know if they are aggressive? What happens if you get bit? We join two different perspectives - a K-9 officer and a veterinarian with a background in canine behavior. Glen Scruggs, a retired Oregon police officer has worked in the field for 27 years, 7 of which were with a K-9 provides perspectives on the laws and legal matters surrounding canine bites. Dr. Chris Pachel who is a veterinarian working in the behavior space for the last 20 years shares insights into canine body language, territorial instincts, and how to prepare yourself as a cyclist passing by.
