Petition Lessons in schools and adverts about dogs body language

More details

To prevent dog attacks the children today should be taught how a dog is feeling and reacting through body language. Also, adverts should be put in place to teach adults the importance of not approaching or provoking a dog by understanding their body language. A dog is an animal and will react but not before giving off signs that it's in distress, fight or flight. In the case of a dog being leashed or backed up into a corner results in 'fight'.
