I have had a few people be afraid of Felony before they asked his breed, but mostly its after he's giving kisses, and they say "What breed is he??" and I say "Pit bull mix"...
Some people say, "Awww, he's so sweet." or something along those lines, but this one lady was nuts.
Her little boy was petting Felony and he was just sitting there being a good boy, occasionally licking him, and the woman asked what breed he was, and I said it, and she said "OMG! Why do people even bring those dogs out in public?! They are so evil, and one day your dog is going to hurt or kill someone! Why don't you leave that dog at home on a chain where it belongs!"
I said "Yeah, he's so evil while he sitting here licking your son!!"

I think its so stupid how they are fine with the dog one minute, and the next minute they know his breed and immediately freak out and want to get away from him.

I've had kids be afraid of my girls before, (one weighs 11 lbs, and the other weighs 7 lbs.), but I think they were just scared of dogs in general. They would walk/run completely the other way to get away from them.
