In those instances I simply walk away (and the dog does not maintain contact with them in any way). If someone asks first (common with children) I almost always agree to let them address the dog. I dont if I am in line at the Deli for instance I always ask that they not pet her.

Sometimes I like for my other half to take her to the dog parks and what not so she can "be a dog" because if I am there she does not go and play and "be a dog" as much.
Out of curiosity, what service does your dog provide you?
