Key thing is being courteous to your neighbour - not everyone is comfortable with a "friendly dog" and a stinky wet one doesn't appeal to anyone.
One of my dogs, a black lab/collie cross is well behaved and doesn't cause any issues, the younger one, a retriever/?? (maybe coyote or shepherd) cross needs to be watched closely.
She is young and energetic and looks a lot like a coyote - so she needs to be tied up so she doesn't get a bullet in the head from someone she is running up to. She might be "greeting" someone, but that someone, with a gun, might be thinking there's a rabid coyote on the attack ...... could you imagine my kids seeing that. lol.
It's all about manners and common sense with your pets.
