People are scared of my Great Pyrenees

A lot of people are scared of my great Pyrenees. How do I explain to them that she is nice. She just wants to sniff you. If she barks or paws you she just wants attention. How do I explain that better, because they don't understand.

Fear of Pyr
by: Donna

You don't. They are afraid of her. You can't change this. They will be afraid of any big dog.

Simply walk past them. There will be other people who will want to meet your dog.

Great Ambssadors
by: Ed A from NJ

Never force your dog on people I take mine to adoption days every weekend where i help out. Through constant exposure people just want to get to know this beautiful boy. Be pacent if you show him around they will come.
