[quote=EconProf] Many in this group had a bad experience with a supposedly “gentle” dog.
The other group, primarily dog owners, say their dogs are friendly, gentle, loving, and could never hurt anyone, and never have hurt anyone, at least recently.
Put me into the first group.[/quote]
I’ve never had a dog of mine bite anyone ever. I’ve never been bitten by anyone’s dog.
None of my friends have told me that they’ve been bitten by a dog.
Why should I be afraid of dogs?
That being said, I don’t like having dogs. The only reason we ever had one to begin with is the kids begged and begged me. And Guess Who ended up taking care of it.
We’re done with dogs, no more for us. But that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy other people’s dogs. All the fun, none of the maintenance.
