Dogs Know Their Victims
Studies have shown
that dogs that bite are
well known to their
victims, have a
reputation for being
“nice” and are pets, not
guard dogs trained to
defend property
Experts say that most
dogs that bit are not
vicious, and that the size
of a dog has nothing to do
with its biting tendencies.
Even so-called friendly
breeds, such as the St
Bernard, may be
aggressive at times
The dog has certain
body language which tip
you off to its mood.
Dogs that bark too
much, are kept penned
up. are teased, frustrated
or start out in life with
little human contact may
be candidates for biting
Dogs are protective of
their own territory and
may attack a person who
enters this domain
A potentially
aggressive dog will keep
eye contact, show its
teeth in a snarl and raise
the hair on its shoulders
and rump.
It may walk stiff-
legged, as if on its toes, or
raise a front leg and even
Records
Essential
For Returns
Keeping accurate
financial records can
make it much easier for
taxpayers to complete
their income tax returns,
the Internal Revenue
Service said.
Although taxpayers
are not required to use a
specific recordkeeping
system, receipts, cancell-
ed checks, bills, old
returns and other written
documents are essential
in proving expenses.
Records should be kept
three years after the
return was due or filed,
or two years after the tax
was paid, whichever is
later.
Records involving pro-
perty transactions should
be kept for as long as
they are helpful in deter-
mining the basis of
original or replacement
property.
More information
about records keeping
can be found in IRS
Publication 55, “Record-
keeping Requirements
and a List of Tax Publics
tions.’’
wag its arched tail
slowly.
What do you do if you
feel threatened? Experts
in “Pet Journal” have
these suggestions
• Never disturb a dog,
even your pet, while it
sleeps or eats.
• If a dog is restrained
or confined, never enter
its domain
• Never tease, throw
rocks or sticks, or dangle
food or a toy while
playing with a dog
• Hands, arms and
voices should be kept
down around dogs,
especially one that ap-
pears threatening.
Screams and quick
movements may provoke
a dog.
• Avoid a pack of dogs
at all costs, and notify
authorities of such a
pack They are highly
dangerous and may
attack without reason.
• Be especially wary of
big breeds of dogs, which
can quickly cause serious
injury.
• Stay calm and as still
as possible if a dog runs
at you, and never turn
your back or run away
from the animal
Attempting to scare it
off by clapping your
hands may have an
adverse effect.
Rest bet is to speak in a
soft monotone, don’t look
the dog in the eye, and
keep your palms turned
up and your hands below
your hips
Keeping your head
down and your eyes
averted is a show of
submission.
• Some experts suggest
a low whistle, as if calling
the dog
• If chased while riding
a bicycle, pedal smoothly
and speak soothingly. It
may be necessary to
dismount and push your
bike away slowly without
turning your back on the
dog
