Some people have the strangest relationship with their dogs. On my way to my morning swim i often cross this elderly lady with her huge black dog. She clearly has no control over the dog. The dog clearly knows and enjoys this.

Today she did call him back, it's a he, but he gleefully ignored her, came close and shook his super wet fur right next to me. It felt menacing.

I am no exactly scared of dogs, but i am also not not scared. Especially when it is obvious that the owners have no control.
