Even Misty could be intimidated by strangers and strange circumstances.
I think people see dogs as animated stuffed toys. They do not really understand that they are living beings with feelings. We need to respect them and not ask too much of them. If most dog attacks were analyzed we would see that there usually is a reason.
People ask too much of their children some times as well.
When it comes to dogs and children together, people use no common sense at all. Most dog attacks are preventable.
I always speak to a dog and let it sniff me if it seems interested. If I get a sense that the dog wants to be left alone, I leave it alone. Sometimes I want to be left alone so I get it.
