[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the one who posted a couple of times about my allergic son and to be clear I actually like dogs, I grew up with a golden, I’d love to have a dog myself but not with my kid being allergic obviously. I think having a kid who is allergic and afraid of dogs has made me realize how awful so many dog owners are , that’s all. Like once we were having a picnic in the park and an off leash dog ran up and grabbed my kids sandwich out of his literal hand. You probably think I’m making this up that he could have been bitten twice , have his sandwich eaten once, etc etc. But no! There are just that many clueless dog owners in my area of my city.[/quote]

PP, I am an adult with a severe dog allergy, and just cosigning here that you are not crazy. Once you have a real need to avoid dogs, you start noticing how bad a lot of dog owners are. I also break out into hives if a dog licks me, rubs it's nose on me, or rubs it's fur on me and it makes life really difficult. (I also get hives and breathing issues from breathing in the dander, so how fun that people think their dog should go any and all indoor spaces these days!) I have  to be hypervigilant just taking a walk in my neighborhood because so many dog owners think nothing is wrong with letting dogs come into contact with other people who didn't consent to it.

For people who are then going to say "oh just go places that don't allow dogs," people do not follow the rules.

For those who think she is making it up, you are super, super lucky not to have this problem. [/quote]

Just don’t go near the dogs. If they are out walking their dog just avoid them.  Simple.   [/quote]

Lol you try avoiding all dogs and get back to me. People sometimes get really upset when I give their dogs a wide berth. I have had people literally change course and try to come towards me with their dogs. Some people cannot believe you don’t want interact with their precious pup. [/quote]

So what? Who cares if they get upset? Ignore them and grow up.[/quote]
I have had people get so upset with me asking them not to let their dog make contact with me that dh has almost been in a fist fight. I also once had someone purposely let their dog off the leash to chase me/my child. Some of you don’t get how unhinged these dog obsessed nuts can be. [/quote]
