My fear of Dogs

[navigator]

My fear of dogs almost got me killed one day when I was a very young girl. It is funny how I love dogs now, but I guess that shows the difference between ignorance and knowledge. In my case, especially this one, ignorance was certainly not bliss

I sympathise. The times I almost got killed running from dogs before I killed that habit. People do this really funny double-take when they almost run you over.

I think what did it for me was my brothers fear of dogs. Whenever one was around it was constant screaming and tears, and the parental comforting on the matter was that dogs can smell fear, so don't be afraid, and that if you run they'll chase you. The message gets rather garbled in a child's mind, you know?
