Fears! Fears make everyone uncomfortable, some people even get uncomfortable just by talking about their fears. I am the kind of person who doesn’t really get scared by things like spiders, snakes, a crazy lunatic with an axe, You know the usual but No! My fear was something that most people call adorable.

That’s right I was scared of Dogs! Okay, Okay, I know that I have already posted article about 5 Things I wish I knew before getting a Dog and my family has a tradition of having dogs nonetheless I was scared of them. I would do stuff like hide behind people and try to walk in the opposite direction when I saw a dog. There was also a nasty incident in which some stray dogs jumped our backyard wall and hid in some bushes behind our big mango tree. I was just walking in our backyard to get some fresh air and then I heard them, more specifically their barks. I looked over and saw link three border collie sized dogs running right at me! And at that point when I saw those dogs running after me my heart rate was very high (I could feel it pounding real hard) I was like “Yep, My time is up. This is the thing that takes me out. Hey, Grim reaper. Is that you?” “No, You Idiot! It’s me your mom” My mom said. Thankfully my mom came in time and scared them away before they got to me. That incident scared me for life or more like 6 years.

The dog were about this big.

I also had a neighbor with a small (devil) Chinese dog. He was small and loud but even as a 10 year old I was terrified of him and I dreamt of having a dog that would protect me from him but by the time I did get my dog, I had moved so yeah. My dog was and still is adorable. I love my Dog! (By the way my dog peed in my mom’s room immediately after stepping into my house) The day he arrived I was really happy. He didn’t do much for a week but after a week, He started running after me and kind of barking and I was scared.

I was a so scared and it was so funny that my family members were dying of laughter. The first time I kept him on my lap I was literally crying my soul out. Now, A year and a half of keeping him I don’t even hesitate to put my hand in his mouth.
