I agree that some parents don't teach their children how to ask to pet dogs anymore. Luckily, I've never had any problems with Ana. She just loves everyone and everything. When we're in Petco, she has to greet everyone she sees and will bark if I don't let her say hello to a fellow pooch. Last time we went to the pet store, I had to convince some kids that Ana is really nice and was just really excited to see them. She was running around like crazy and pulling on her leash to go and run up to them and give them kisses. Once, I had to pick her up because a little girl was so scared of her that she wouldn't walk past us. The funny thing is that Ana doesn't have a mean bone in her body, she just gets so excited, she's TOO social! I spend more time coaxing people to say hello and pet her than I do keeping children away from her.
