That being said, you have to also remember people are stupid, they will walk right up and stick their face to any animals face like it's nothing. In Dog language this is a threat....and they often react. They will touch and pet your dog without your consent or even bothering to ask, etc. So if you aren't confident in the socialization and temperament of your pet then don't take them public places. If there's any concern then muzzle them until you are sure...
It's a shame and I hate misbehaved animals as much as the next but it's not their fault at all. They weren't taught any different.

Exactly! And people's similar lack of control over their kids is what keeps us from bringing ghost out more often. Vic already lost one dog to some retard's kid running up and hitting it in the face. Don't want it happening again
