You can use an OpenGraph plugin to try and specify which text you want shared.
How do you prevent it from sharing an image or specify a specific image?
I just installed opengraphr and see no difference. FB still grabbing an image in my footer. I added an additional image on my footer and it still grabs the other one. Tried sharing with several different computers and phones.
When I look at my page source there are a couple different
<meta property=”og:image” content=””
images listed. none of them the one FB shows.
When I look at the URL that is in my browser for the FB share it shows in the URL the correct image (the one in the blog post), but on the browser itself it has the footer image.

So how is it the URL shows the correct path to the correct image but when you go to post the article it has the correct text but incorrect image?
This is probably due to Facebook having cached your page and still serving the cached version. Go to the Facebook Debug Tools, type in the URL to your page, click Debug, then on the next screen click “Fetch new scrape information”.
