Sometimes dogs notice things that we never give a thought to. Make sure you don't force her to greet people but speak encouragingly to her when you do see people coming her way. If the person wants to interact with your dog try to have them keep their distance. No one should ever approach a strange dog without the owner's permission. Make sure she is comfortable with the encounter. Don't force her.
Setting up some encounters with people you know is a good way to help her overcome her fear of meeting people during a walk. |
