Ah, it depends on the town. here they assume unless otherwise that a dog
bites, end of story, so a simple "Does that Dog bite," with the answer "not
usually" will send people into a panicked flight away from the dog.
So sometimes I need to explain that guide dogs are gentle and are not
allowed to be aggressive, but sometimes it is lost on people. And sometimes
I don't try, smile, depending again on what neighborhood I find myself
standing in. Or if I am on a bus or where I am.
Here my dog is a "guard" dog, I am not quite sure where that one came from,
smile, shrug, but I try to change it if I can. It is usually different
ethnic groups that appear to be absolutely terrified of my dog.

Hmmm. I think "Growl" or "Vicious" of "Protector"
would be better. smile
