Now, as it turns out, the dog was friendly and had gotten out of an open gate at a house up the street. He'd headed straight for the first folks he saw, just to make friends I guess...

...I guess you just never know what the day will bring.
The same sort'a thing happend to us last Friday. Wifey pulls up in driveway and I let out her two tiny pooches ( 4.6 and 5.4 pounds) like we do every day. They run to greet their momma and then I hear the wifey yell Oh No!!! I stepped off the landing and both dogs are making a bee line to me then I see a very large black lab run around her car towards them.

I grabbed his collar and hung out with him till wifey and pooches were in the house, then escorted the lab outta the yard. Had he not been friendly the story would have ended badly.

Like in your story, I was very grateful the dog was friendly. I was mostly unprepared for what had happened only having a folding knife.
