[quote=Anonymous]My youngest was afraid of dogs for years. I don't know if it was extreme but he was definitely afraid. Despite this, he was the biggest proponent of us getting a dog. He's 11 now and is still a little skittish around dogs, even ours at times. We didn't do much about it other than giving him concrete things to do when a dog approached him. We never asked anyone to put up their dogs when we visited or anything like that. We just carried on and I picked him up if he needed it. Obviously I can't pick him up now. But, he feels pretty good about dogs overall, even if he doesn't always want to interact with them.[/quote]
