        Ive got a pariah dog too but not dingo. Incredibly prey driven. Does not bark much unless she has a reason. Very bad with other dogs, tests their reflexes if given the chance. Used to be bad with people and food possessive but she’s good now after years of training and socialization.

        Also is an escape artist. Climbed a nine foot chain link fence and chewed through stucco.

    Do you pet random dogs on the street? No? Then you won’t have any problems with Dingoes. Drop Bears on the other hand…

      There are countries where all dogs have owners (mostly on the other side of the leash) and you are always supposed to ask the owners before you pet them.

      And then there are countries blessed with really cute street dogs that tend to turn tummy up when you’re passing them. You’re supposed to pet those randomly.

    Hot take (I’ll accept my downward facing arrows, thank you), but people regularly vastly overestimate the safety and docility of “regular” dogs too
