There was a time in my life where i was DEATHLY SCARED of dogs..... So, yes, i would have asked her to put the dog on a leash, ESPECIALLY if that dog is running aropund and running up to people (even if it's just being friendly). I read somewhere that the guy was bird watching...so maybe he was concerned that the dog might chase after a bird or harm it....... NO MATTER WHAT THE ISSUE WAS, SHE SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE WHAT SHE DID
