Are people typically fearful of your dog/s

[Suki Wingy]

I can't really tollerate people being afraid because I'm not really of anything and that is something I have to work on. When people are afraid of Niño I tend to walk twards them. When I bring him to the PLAYGROUND I have kids ask me if he bites when they are standing right next to me! Why would he be at the playground if he bit?!?!?! When people act scared sometimes before I know what I'm doing I'm saying loudly to Niño, "That's so MEAN to be afraid of someone with out knowing them!" I get a lot of, "Dalmatians are snappy and bad with kids." to my face!!! Even though he's NOT even mixed with dals.
When kids and moms are petting him and they ask, "whjt breed?" and they hear "pit bull" as part they just about run away. Keep in mind they were ALL rREADY petting him!!
