What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
Do not wave your arms or hands around, as this can be seen as aggressive by the dog. Clench your fingers together into loose fists and keep your arms at your sides. Plant your feet hip width apart and stand still. Do not try to touch or pat the dog, as this can be interpreted as aggressive. Never reach out to touch a dog you do not know. Do not stare in the dog’s eyes or meet it at eye level. Instead, look at its feet or at your own feet. This will let the dog know that you are not a threat. Position your body so you are facing one side of the dog. Do not stand so you are positioned head on with it or behind it, as this can spook it. Avoid yelling or shouting around the dog, as this can scare it. Instead, speak in a low, calm voice. You may say “Hello there” or “Nice doggy” to let the dog know you are friendly. If you know the dog’s name, try saying its name a few times calmly and slowly. This will let it know you are not a threat. If the dog gets close to you and does not display signs of aggression like growling, crouching, or barking, allow it to sniff your legs or waist. Stay still as it sniffs you. Once it smells you, it may determine you are not a threat and move away from you. If you are not comfortable letting the dog sniff you, move away from the dog safely and slowly so neither of you are in danger.

Summary:
Stand still with your arms relaxed at your sides. Avoid making direct eye contact with the dog. Move to the side of the dog. Speak slowly and calmly around it. Allow it to sniff you.
