Reply to comment by whaletacochamp in "Dogspam" by pv_punisher

It’s funny, because I’ve yet to meet a dog owner who says they have a bad/misbehaved dog, or an owner who admits to being a bad one. So what I don’t want is to interact with your dog unless I am trying to do so.

My dog is well behaved like 75% of the time, and since I have him under control 100% of the time you would never interact with him unless you wanted.

Depends how we define interact. If I’m walking down a sidewalk, and you and your dog are walking the other way, and I have to adjust my path to avoid your barking dog on its leash, that is me interacting. If we are both in a park, and your dog is parking and jumping at the end of the leash like it’s trying to get away from the leash to come say hi to me, that takes my attention as I have to consider can you hold the dog (many dog owners can’t and the dog and leash go running) so that in my book is interacting, even if you have control, when a dog is going nuts a stranger has no idea you have control.
