That's the thing, I don't personally think it gets worked out. It's all good. I take them for walk in countryside and he doesn't attack anyone. When we see people, I whistle and he comes and sit waiting for me to put the leash on as if he's saying he wants to be controlled. He just seems to need to mark people if they come to the house. If friends actually listen and bend down and face him and wait for him to come to them, no problems. At what point is an animal a problem in some way. I don't personally think he's doing anything wrong if he's afraid, it might be up to other not to make him feel that way.

Am sure in the modern world, to many people that sound irresponsible but here in costa rica, we have loads of street dogs and strays. I know many people who've been bitten. Every time I hear of it and I ask if they backed up when dog was being agressive, making sure not to turn their backs, I find they all did the same thing. Turn round and get bitten on the back of the calf. It is a standard attack for a dog. Is the dog responsible for the person's ignorance?
