And honestly, if someone said "lets go see her" to their dog, I would probably walk away because they end up being the same people who when you tell them no say "its okay ,my dog LOVES dogs". |
That was my original thought too, as my last pup was very nervous around other dogs and I wouldn't allow him to approach stranger-dogs in public. But this lady's yorkie was pulling towards Levi (and to me looked excited, like he wanted to play, not nervous or aggressive) and she pulled him the other way.
I just wish she had offered some sort of explanation. Instead, she just gave us a cold look and turned away. I would have been more understanding if she had said something "My dog doesn't play well with others," "He's been sick recently," or "We are in a hurry." Maybe if she even said hello, even from across the distance. But her manner was just completely rude.
