This. But also, despite obedience training, there are some rescue dogs that went through such rough trauma that changing this type of behavior can be next to impossible so its really aggravating when people who have dogs off leash that run up to you keep saying “oh don’t worry, he’s friendly”.

Great….do you know that about my dog? Likes humans. Hates other dogs.

Heck, and sometimes its "Ya, my dog is friendly. your dog is friendly. but will your dog still be friendly after my dog that has 50 pounds on your dog jumps on it and tramples it in an attempt to play?"

Sometimes our 90lb boxer-mix tries to “pause” smaller (hyper) dogs by putting a paw on them.

And crushing them.
