There is also a way to approach fearful dogs. Zoey NEVER lets anyone near her (unless she has Anya around) and the trainer at our latest dog class showed everyone how to do it. She came right up beside Zoey and squated down beside her but not facing her and was just handing her treats from the side and within seconds Zoey was facing her and responding to her in a positive way.
I think it is similar to the Sticky about "How to Pet a Dog" (maybe in the training section?)
I know in this situation you would have probablynever gotten the guy to try approaching King the right way, but if you see that this works with him, it may be helpful in the future to educate people and have King respond positively to them.
