To be fair I'm uncomfortable around large dogs, i am very scared of them
Today in vets I walk in see vet in consulting room is looking after a large dog.
Vet closes door
As I'm not good with dogs and I have a cat in basket who doesn't like dogs I put ourselves as far away as possible so when dog and owner walk out we are as far away from the paying counter as possible
Dog owner walks past, towards counter I say to him " sure your dog is lovely but i don't like dogs"
He rolls his eyes at me, his dog is on a rope, he lets it get closer to me
I say again "please keep your dog away from me"
Fifth time I tell him please move your dog and I'm feeling horrible, embarrassed and I want to burst into tears
The receptionist even asked him to move. Two foot towards the counter would have helped
His answer - well I had hands my full
I'm sure the actual dog was lovely, but shouldn't dog owners understand not everyone is comfortable with their dogs?
