<p>I can relate to Beth's comments on "stillness" in a more personal way. I am one who always believes you can talk things out when there are differences of opinion or misunderstandings. My family knows that it's when I stop talking that you really have to worry!!! It must be the dog in me :-DD</p>

<p>Thank you for sharing. Stillness is always the one I watch for (since the others are more easily spotted). A still dog is getting ready to act, and usually not in a good way. The ones I have trouble judging are terriers; they tend to stare and go still when they want to play. When in doubt I go by Jack's reaction. He is very dog-savvy. If a dog wants to play he invariably wants to go say hi. If a dog is posturing aggressively, he will look away and sniff the ground. </p>

<p>I am disheartened by the number of people who don't recognize the signs of pending aggression in their own dogs. I don't rely on others assessments unless I know the people. I trust myself to determine which situations are safe for my dogs, and which are not.</p>

<p>People need to realize that it is quite normal for dogs to not like other dog and more so in some breeds than others. To expect strange dogs to automatically get along is unrealistic and unreasonable. As you say, one must know the early signs to avoid disaster...</p>
