This so much. I've had dogs snarling at me, and the owner is like "Oh, don't worry, he's friendly." Like no, he's friendly towards people he knows, not random strangers!

This got severely exacerbated by the pandemic too. A lot of people who had zero business having a dog found themselves with a bit too much free time and decided a new dog was the solution.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, but if you get a dog as a quick fix to your own problems without putting a LOT of thought into it first, you might not be the best person to have a dog.
