excellent answer. 99 times out of a 100 when a dog attacks someone it’s being provoked in one way or another. Teaching people to respect dogs and how to be around them is the best thing to do. I know several people back up in the burgh and several down here that have dogs that “cant be around new people, are mean tempered, will bite you” etc. After 10 minutes with every one of them they’d never even think of being overly aggressive towards me. Dont show fear, establish your dominance, and then let them get used to you and realize that you are not a threat to them and 99% of the time they’ll at least leave you alone, if not turn into a totally harmless little puppy.
