Dog fighting is very unpleasant, both for the animals involved and for the humans who see them. They usually do not last more than a few minutes, but that is long enough for serious injuries. Therefore, it is very important that we know how to stop a dog fight, because this way we will prevent the dogs from getting hurt.
There are several ways to stop them, and I'll tell you all of them below.
First of all, it is important that you know that when a dog is fighting, it is fighting. I mean, he won't pay attention to anything but thatBecause they can only keep their brain busy with one thing: in the here and now. For this reason, no matter how much you normally call, they will not hear you.
Another thing you should know is that never, and when I say never is never (I am not to send orders, but this may be a matter of life or death) we must put ourselves in the middle of the two dogs. As well as we know them, we don't know how he's going to react, and if we get in the way, we could end up with serious injuries. That said, and with that in mind, the best way to stop a dogfight is ...
Grab the dog by the tail or hind legs
This is something that two people should do: one grabs one, the other the other. Once the subjects are in, the two people will separate them at the same time. They should not be caught by the collar, since we could suffocate them.
Squirt it with water
If there is a hose nearby, you can try to stop the fight by directing the stream of water at the dogs, but not aiming at the head, but at a hind leg. Most dogs do not like water, so it is a strategy that can work.
Make a (very) loud noise
If you make a very loud noise, or if you yell, many dogs will immediately stop the fight. It is true that before I said that if you talk to them they will not listen to you, but a scream or making a very loud sound is usually enough for the furry to pay attention to you. When he does, you'll have a chance to put the leash on him and get away from there.
With these tips, and always respecting the dogs, surely it will be easier for you to stop a dog fight.
