Safety on Stairs | Protect your pets from harm

In daily life, we often see passengers with pets on the elevator, whether all owners can ensure the safety of their pets on the elevator?

In the video, a man holding a dog into the elevator, because drunk asleep in the elevator, the elevator arrived, the pet dog first out of the elevator waiting for the master, but the man did not fall asleep in time out of the ladder, and then the elevator door closed, at this time, one end of the traction rope set in the dog’s neck, the other end set in the man’s wrist, with the elevator down, the traction rope taut, very dangerous. After the man was successfully rescued, and the end of the dog can only be sigh!

Such a tragedy happened more than once in life, according to media reports, last February, a pet dog tied around the neck of a leash, followed a young boy into the elevator, the boy did not hold the leash. When the elevator door closed, the dog’s leash was still outside the door. As the elevator rose, due to the other end of the leash was caught, the pet dog against the elevator door was hanging in the air. During the period, the boy pressed the elevator door open button several times before opening the elevator door, the elevator stopped running. But the dog has been hanging in mid-air, the boy did not know what to do. After a minute or so, three adults to the elevator door to hold the hanging dog, the boy rushed from the elevator to run out.

What happened to these pet dogs is deplorable. So, what exactly is the right way to do to carry your pet in the elevator? What else should I be aware of when taking my pet on the elevator?

When taking pets in the elevator, we should pay special attention to the safety of entering and leaving the elevator. Light curtain elevator door through the infrared light curtain induction, although more sensitive, but there is also a “sensing blind spot”, may not be able to sense the presence of relatively small pets or traction leash. So if you have some small pets, the best in and out of the elevator to hold the pet up, so you can completely avoid being pinched; if the family has a relatively large pet, can not hold up, the owner needs to hold the traction rope, with the pet in and out, otherwise it may be like the video, people in the car, pets in the car outside, the elevator door closed due to induction traction rope, resulting in accidental injury.

When the elevator is running, it is also best to hold the pet in our arms, if the pet is too big to hold up, then we must put a leash on it, let the pet sit against the car wall, the owner stands on the outside of the pet, blocking with his body to prevent the pet from suddenly leaping out or running, the car space is small, once the pet and other passengers in the car conflict, it may cause injury and affect other passengers.

Also pay attention to keep the car clean, if the pet produces feces in the car, the owner should clean up in time, do not affect other passengers using the elevator.

We also need to pay extra attention when riding the sightseeing elevator. As the elevator runs, the pet feels the outside world through the glass and may become anxious, irritable, or even afraid of heights and scurrying. Owners should help their pets to relieve stress, giving reassurance and enough security to calm it down. Of course, we can also choose to take the stairs, although more difficult, but for the pet will not produce a sense of fear.
