Big fluffy white dogs are scary. I wouldn't do that. I like Pyrenees, but walking up to one you don't know and pet-petting it is kinda gloopy.Random rant:
Just because it's a big white fluffy dog doesn't mean you need to pet it without my permission when I'm not looking
You'd be surprised how many people do it, almost every time we go out it happens.
Yea...no. The last thing I'd ever do is interact with a large dog I don't know. That's just stupid. For context, I catch snakes, and I'm not afraid of them.
It is stupid, you can't always tell if a dog is aggressive and just walking up behind a dog and petting it can scare them
'Specially German sheppies.
Well I don't believe breed stereotypes like that but I guess...GSDs are used as working dogs a lot so that's one reason to definitely not pet.
Breed stereotypes? Well, certain breeds are bred to do certain things. Genetics are very strong and even if a dog isn't trained to do something it was bred to do, chances are it's going to do it. Apparently, mine was bred to sleep 23.5 hours a day.
Its definitely not just a stereotype! My GSD is far far more likely to bite somebody then my springer
I totally understand that breeds have genetics and are more likely to do certain stuff, but I don't believe just because a dog is a certain breed mean it will act a certain way, there's plenty of very sweet GSDs
