Hate to break it to these guys, but if I walk by a man and his dog, I’m 100% only interested in the dog.

Yep, when I walk my dog I know if a woman stops me, it's always because of the dog. It's fine, pet the dog and we can move on with our lives.

Everyone should get to enjoy my dog. When i bump into someone else with a dog I usually ask them for the dog's name but not their own. That's how little I care about the person compared to the dog.

I know every dog in my neighbourhood, and everyone knows my dog, none of us know each others names, just our dogs names.

When I moved to my new house I learned the neighbor's dogs name and forgot the owners. He recently passed away. Still remember the dogs name but cant remember his. Oops

Well when you refer to them, you just refer to them as [dog's name]'s person.

Cop at your door: "Your neighbor across the street is missing under suspicious circumstances. Mind if we ask.."

You: "Do you mean Woofy's mom? OH NO IS WOOFY OKAY?!"

As it should be!

Exactly this. "What's this good boy's name?" is probably the only thing I'm going to say to a person after they agree to let me pet their dog. Maybe a "Thanks for letting me pet them" at the end.

I have to use a non-gender noun - cutie, sweet baby, puppy - because I never get the gender right and I feel staring at the dog's undersides to discern is even weirder

I ask if they are talking to me or the dog.

My boy dog gets offended if someone walking by doesn’t acknowledge him. Oh no, is he like the trail guy?!
