person A: There was a random dog in my yard yesterday morning.  He didn't look mean but I wasn't sure I wanted to mess with him.
person B: I've been in that situation before!  It can be scary
person A: It was!  I didn't want to chase him off either.  Thankfully he just kind of wandered away.
person B: I'm glad it worked out in the end!  I wish people would be more careful with their dogs.
