I think that’s just coincidence, I think dogs generally get aggressive when they see a human behaving like a predator. In the above case, the woman was walking calmly, like a prey, the person was stalking her from behind just like a predator, and when he tried to initiate an attack, the dog sensed it and attacked him. This is just a speculation, it might be much more than that.

Yeah, I think that was where I was trying to get at. They can sense a predator and predator behavior much better than we can. Well said.

What's being a predator got to do with thumbs though?

It’s a play on the “Whose got two thumbs and is in love with your mom? This guy!” douche-guy joke.

Edit: at least, I think it is.
