Just that really.
Dog wears one because she has nipped a few people.
She is not people aggressive.
I had a woman today clearly frightened because she ran near her buggy.
Near as in running past it.
Not barking/lunging/acting aggressive/approaching the child etc.
The woman got really scared at the sight of my dog, recoiled pulling the buggy so my dog did what most dogs will do in response and looked at her and went to approach.
So I called her back to me immediately and put her lead on.
That didn’t stop the woman constantly looking back angrily at me as she was walking ahead.
I really don’t think my dog had done anything that would reasonably make anyone feel frightened.
I can only assume it is the muzzle making the mum think she must be some child mauling demon.
And I find it really upsetting.
I wanted to talk to her and explain that she has the muzzle for nipping dogs and that I was sorry she frightened her but she honestly poses no risk to her child and has no interest in her child.
But her constant looking back and glaring at me made me feel really uncomfortable so I didn’t.
