If someone is looking at Chili with longing, but a bit of apprehension - I'll say "She's VERY friendly! Would you like to say hello to her?"
If they are interested in her and not apprehensive, I'll say "Her name is Chili - she'd love to say Hi to you!"
For those who cross the street, I see no reason to attempt any interaction at all. If they are people I see on a regular basis in the neighborhood, it'll only be a matter of time before they figure out on their own that she's a love, LOL.
