Yeah I think these people all must have grown up with a well-socialized lab or something. They think every dog is like their dog. But my dog's got dignity, god-damnit. Dignity and a whole host of traumas I will never know about. I get hints of it sometimes - like I was smashing a bag of frozen fruit on the counter to get it to break up, and she dashed to the front of the RV cowering and shaking. Who knows what's happened to her. Sometimes she's scared of strangers and that fear turns to threatening behavior. I'm just grateful she seems perfectly happy and at home with me.
