Besides individual things like thunder and gunshots, what dogs fear most is not belonging, being alone.

Personally, I don't want to own a dog that inspires fear. I choose my dogs carefully, have their temperaments observed and evaluated, train and socialize them day after day. Yet I know any dog can be unpredictable.

I have an issue with dogs - I can't pick up after them. It's nothing personal; it just makes me feel like a servant.

When I was a kid I was always afraid of small dogs, because they always seemed like the ones that would attack.

I was so sad from losing two of my dogs and my mother. I had this vision of all these animals sitting behind bars. They had no control and were scared. That's why I got into fostering and adopting animals out.

Animals were my pets, and the thought of eating my pets freaked me out.

I'm afraid of animals.

In high school I was the dog, always, and I never have felt comfortable or right in my body, and part of my whole exhibitionist thing has probably been a way of testing to see whether or not I really was this repulsive creature that I felt like for so long.

I got dogs. I'm a dog guy.
