Cynophobia

Cynophobia - fear of dogs

I think it's a pretty common fear really, though usually irrational, as people who have cynophobia often have never hada bad encounter with a dog. It affects me, and guess what - my boyfriend recently got a dog! Not just any dog, a German Shepherd, and they're pretty scary!

One of my goals this year is to overcome my fear of dogs, which I am in the process of doing already. I went round to my boyfriend's house and spent time with him and the dog, and it was ok, so I'm getting better.
