This is such a dumb take. I have two family members who were both attacked by dogs as children (yes, due to crappy owners, but still). Let people have their well earned anxiety. I love a good boy or girl as much as the next guy, but my cousin deserves to never want to be near a dog again. She was attacked at 5 and kids were still calling her scar face in highschool. Let people hate dogs.
Sure, but as someone with dogs in my life I’m going to want to socialise with people I can introduce my dogs to. Your cousin won’t want to be around me and I get that, it’s not about me.
Not everybody is for everybody, and that’s okay.
Edit: re-reading this, it sounded callous. I’m sorry your cousin got attacked, it must have been awful for her.

I cannot believe that. I have a dog that does not trust anyone, and another that likes everyone, leading me to believe there is a flaw in your logic.
I also have a sibling and a parent that don’t like dogs. I just try to keep the dogs out of their way when they visit. In general, they are very pleasant people
Never trust someone that doesn’t like dogs and never trust someone your dog doesn’t like.

Nah, you’re all good! It’s just the parent comment calling her untrustworthy I don’t like!

Bullshit…some dogs are assholes. If you live by this rules then I don’t trust you. Don’t care if my dog likes you or not.
so, dogs like me, but i never like them back. what happenes now?
you progress to the cat test.
My dog doesn’t like most people… so I guess that checks out
