I very firm in my get away from my dog.
Mine is not overly happy with strangers in its face for various reasons.
If back off does not work. I just tell them to go get there own dog and leave mine alone.
If that does not work and it was not. I put myself in between my dog and the on coming fool and look like all heck will break loose if they try.. cause it will.
There will be no one picking up or touching my dog without me saying so.
When I am working a dog I am soicalizing and someone runs up. I say good way to get oneself bite is to pull that on my other dog. Try this instead.
I go about teaching the right way to interact with any of my dogs.
