[quote=Anonymous]When another dog is coming and we're on the same side of the street AND when I want to, I have my dog sit and I call out to the person coming down the street. If they say their dog is friendly, the dogs sniff, humans exchange pleasantries, and we move on. When my dog is seated and waiting, if the person says no to meeting, my dog continues to sit while I give her a treat. If I'm busy or don't want to stop, I'll cross the street or just keep walking straight by the other person and their dog. If their dog lunges and/or barks at mine (either in a way that they want to meet or an aggressive way), that's on them - I don't care and I'm going to keep moving and I expect my dog to as well. Occasionally, when I'm trying to do a quick pass by, my dog decides that she MUST bark and lunge at some particular dog, but she's on leash, can't do any harm except make noise, and I say "sorry" and keep walking.
