em_lovesdogsš¶ What do you do when someone ignores you and tries to pet your dog anyway?
In this video, the owner does everything right. He advocates for his dogs, sets boundaries, and says no. But the person recording? They keep trying anyway.
šØ This is why we have to be firm. Just because someone wants to pet your dog doesnāt mean they should.
Your dog doesnāt exist for public access. If they need space, itās your job to advocate for themāeven if it feels awkward.
š¾ How to Handle People Who Ignore Your Boundaries:
ā Step between them and your dog to block access
ā Use a firmer tone if they donāt back off
ā If they still donāt listen? Walk away
Your job is to protect your dogās comfort and safetyānot to make strangers happy.
š¢ Drop a š if youāve ever had to advocate for your dogās space. Letās normalize listening to dogs.
