One time three dogs came up to him at once.
Also, I remember walking alone, and this German Shepard starting jumping on me. The owner said he was friendly but that can still give a person a heart attack. Some people are afraid of dogs.

Even friendly dogs can cause emotional distress or injury. Owners should never allow pets to approach folks they don't know, even to say"hello".
