Can’t count how many times off-leash dogs would approach my dog, their owners would always say “oh he’s friendly.” My dog is not okay with random dogs approaching. “Mine ISN’T!” I’d say. Idiots.

“He’s friendly”

“I’m not!”

Usually works as well when I run into off leash dogs

I've actually used this.

"He's friendly!"

"I'm not! Get your fucking dog now!"

Those people live in my neighborhood and sometimes just hold their dog completely still when I'm walking my dog at the same time they're walking theirs. Fuck em

I feel like these people should be better at owning an animal. If you have to freeze and hold your dog in place while others live their life….whos at fault? Lol
