Man Refuses To Hold His Dog Accountable For Scaring His Cousin, Reveals The Real Truth In The Comments

Many people develop a fear of dogs very early in life. It's critical to distinguish between a fear of dogs and general apprehension or hostility.

Some individuals feel uneasy around certain breeds of dogs, particularly huge ones, but they keep their distance. However, if you suffer from cynophobia, you have a severe phobia of canines.

You probably take extra precautions to avoid coming into contact with a dog. When you hear a dog barking in the distance, your stress levels go into overdrive.

Or you avoid going outside during specific times of the day since you are aware that your neighbor will be walking their dog. If any of these situations are familiar to you, you are probably aware that your heightened reaction to dogs is excessive.

The OP's cousin is one of those who are scared of dogs, so the OP tried keeping his dog away when she came around. They were in the guest bedroom when OP's grandmother knocked, saying both his cousins wanted to see the dog.

Now, this dog gets really excited when she meets new people by jumping up on them and giving kisses. The dog did that when he saw them, but the OP held her tightly while she jumped around.

Still, this cousin took to her heels, and the grandma blamed the OP for it.
