I guess I'm more sympathetic to him, becuase I'm also someone who was repeatedly bitten at a young age (and on a bicycle, too!). It took me until my late 20s to be able to behave at all normally around dogs.

Granted, but

1) When asked about dogs in OUR community, would you put down how you'd been attacked by dogs in other cities?

2) You've been attacked by people in a cult, but that didn't put you off people altogether, did it? Dogs are like people: there's crazy ones and there's ones that aren't.
