Hm.
I wouldn't kneel down. That puts you in a vulnerable position, e.g. should the dog lunge at you.

When I meet a dog:

1. Ask if you can pet/ say hello !!!!!!!
2. Approach calmly without staring at the dog or towering over the dog (read body language of the dog)
A scared dog should definitely be approached side on, however, if the dog is scared, the owner should NOT let strangers pet them. Instead, slowly introduce strangers by letting them come near but ignoring the dog, so the dog can feel safe and choose when to approach the human.
When the dog approaches the human and has a good sniff then you can slowly introduce petting the dog (but not on top of the head)
3. I always pet under the chin and not on top of the head as I believe in nurturing confidence.

Good morning friends. I know I've asked this before but, are you getting your steps in? I don't know if everyone knows that I had a complete tear of my ACL and my meniscus about 3 1/2 years ago. I also have bursitis in my hip and tendinosis of my hip. That's a lot of big words to say I messed myself up real good.
PT has been bringing me back to life. I still go after all these years just to touch base and make sure I stay on point. The best exercise I have found is pretty basic. Every day I aim for 10,000 steps. The average American only gets about 4,000 steps a day. Unless you are doing some other form of exercise, 4,000 steps is not nearly enough to prevent cardiovascular disease.

Here is something I found that I think keeps it simple. Good luck and have an awesome day!

Walking can be an ideal low-impact exercise. Get the most from your walking routine.
