    It isn't a good idea to "look into" the eyes of a dog that doesn't know you - many dogs will interpret that as a threatening,challenging gesture,and react accordingly.

    I can understand that.I was bitten by a dog back when I was 14,and was wary of strange dogs for a few years afterwards.

    They can smell fear and see it in your movements...and it scares them, believe it or not.

    ...Most dogs are just wanting to give you a sniff...or if they are like one of mine, a coating of slobber...
