    There are plenty of dog attacks that happen through no fault of the victim. It’s also completely unreasonable to expect every single person that might interact with your dog, by choice or not, to have experience in how to not appear threatening to it. For some dogs it really doesn’t take much and children are naturally adept at miscommunicating with animals. The solution is to train your dog and keep it on a leash in public. Be a responsible owner and accept that strangers don’t have to like your dog, no matter how cute or well-behaved you think it is. It’s not that hard.

      part of the solution is also to train your kids not to approach unfamiliar dog without a permission. not every stranger or their dog has to like your kid, no matter how cute you think it is, it is really not that hard 😂
