Are people typically fearful of your dog/s

[Suki Wingy]

I have a rule that I never tough a dog unless they touch me first, and never at dog shows. You never know, Layla was a fear biter and we had people cumming up behind hear and touching her and then yelling at us that she tried to snap at them.

Hey anna66 I thought you'd like Dugan just think a 150 LB Huney. Newfy and chow He has the chow bounce in his walk so funny to watch him walk from behind.

I voted Yes , because almost everyone and everywhere i go people are afraid of my babies, on walks, they will walk to the other side of the street especially with Senorita, and even when we are driving i will have the windows cracked so the babies can get fresh wind and at stop signs and lights i have had people make comments about rolling up my windows with viscious dogs that i have,when all my babies will be doing is enjoying the breeze with there eyes half closed not even paying attention to the people, so basically these people go mainly by the way they look, most people will be excited to see Face and say"oh its a Rott" but they wont come close (which is fine by me)
And then no one knows what breed Senorita is, they just see she is giant with cropped ears and fierce eyes and they make all sorts of assumptions.
It used to bother me but now not as much.

There are some people who are afraid of Bull but I think it's mainly the pit head. I've had people say to me they were afraid while we are walking towards them but once we got up close they could tell he's not all pit and were ok. Like if he was all pit he would tear their leg off (maybe if they had a steak in their pocket but he would feel bad about it afterwards )

We have a sign on our door that says "Watch your Step - Sleeping Pit Bull Beware of Attack Cat"

Voted sometimes. Most are disturbed by Kia's eyes. I think for some it's her size though I don't think of her as a big dog.

She's been called a devil dog, spawn of Satan, and a dangerous wolf among other things.

My sister was bit when she was younger and she's apprehensive around any dog she doesn't know. Once she gets to know the dog, she's okay.
