Any day and any time a dog could be having a bad day and do something you never thought possible. I always ask permission to interact with someone else’s dog. Dogs only know how to respond to people or dogs if they are taught.
I recall a pooch at Doggie Doo Run Run. Its owners would keep it around them near a shelter in the big dog section . It was a golden lab or something like that. Gentle for the most part. That was until it was a kid, any kid, coming into the dog park. The owners position allowed them to see who was coming into the dog park with time to spare. They needed to do that as some previous neighborhood kid had shot the pooch with various BBs. Or, maybe, a bad parent with a kid with tendencies of animal abuse. The dog hated the sight of any kid. The owners also mentioned that the poor dog still had BBs in it.
