We get "the look" when we have Jada out too--she is our most well-mannered dog!!!!! People cross the street, move their kids to the other side of them, walk by fast--obviously I wouldn't be sitting downtown enjoying my coffee with her if she wanted to take someone's hand off--geesh!!!
But everyone thinks Kito is so fluffy and cute (and he is)--I know he wouldn't hesitate to bite a stranger who didn't approach him properly!!!

Like Anna said, their loss!!
