This is the experience that I had when I took the Canine Biomechanics and Stretching class last month. I learned that it is very important to sit next to a dog side-by-side facing in the same direction, and not to place my face close to a dog’s face. I only dealt with my pugs so I was so used to petting them when directly facing to them, and putting my arms over their heads. The dogs in the class were big dogs, and well-behaved so nothing happened when my face was close to their faces. I really need to remind myself to position myself in a safe manner every single time when I deal with any dogs.
