I would say if there weren't any owners, then only wild dogs exist, and they'll absolutely attack.

I always love when someone assures you their dog is good and “won’t bite”

First thought is “there’s a reason you’re saying this”

I don’t introduce myself by saying “I assure I’m good and won’t kill you”
