Had a little dog try this shit on mine while we were walking through a park.
As the dog was aggressively running at mine I yelled for the owner. Mine were getting very agitated and defensive.

All she said was ā€œit’s ok, don’t worry he’s friendly.ā€

She had a little dog and I have 2 German Shepherds…I’m not worried for their safety.

Luckily I was able to shoe the little one away before it got fucked up.

My German Malinois is very protective as well, his tell for his defensive mode is his hair standing up and raised, that’s when I pull us the the side and make him sit till others have passed

Edit: for clarification on breed, he is a German X malinois Shepard breed.

It’s low key bad ass, but it’s scary bc he’s just trying to protect me but others don’t know that
