I will not allow my dog to defend itself. That is too dangerous for my dog. If little snappy dog comes up and before I can respond, bites my dog, and my dog defends itself, I might have to pay for the other dogs vet bills, pay for the dog as it might be dead, might have to prove to some animal control or judge that my dog is not viscious and should not be destroyed, might have to do a delicate song and dance to my homeowners insurance policy if the people truly go after me.
I do not WANT my dog to defend itself. I do not want to have to grab my dog by the tail and pull him away from a bloody scene. If I can maintain control of my dog and yell down, or kick away the other dog, the owner may not realize how happy they should be, but it would definitely be best for all parties.
