[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people think this is acceptable? Signed, the owner of a dog who is terrified of people. We’re training her but when a stranger gets in her personal space she lashes out and we move 10 steps back on the training curve.[/quote] People should absolutely avoid going into an unfamiliar dog's personal space, for their own safety. But if you have a dog who lashes out, and you're dropping your guard in public to the point that people are getting close, you are incredibly irresponsible. I have a super friendly dog and get annoyed when people get too close to and talk to my dog when I'm desperately trying to get him to exercise or poop or whatever I need, because he gets happy and distracted. But I just stay vigilant and guide him where I need to go. [/quote]
