Mixed friendly/aggressive signals. Help?

My Chow is scared of people approaching

Thank you. We continued to socialize her, took her to many places and it seems now that she stopped the nipping. She is still worried if the situations got complicated, eg kids running, riding scooters, and still doesnt like people petting her, but overall her attitude improves much better. It also ...

She is not too shy with strange people and in strange situations but she is scared of people approaching he...
