Someone explain the dog haters to me.
I have a good friend who seems like a normal respectable stand up kind of a guy in every way, very intelligent, witty, funny, loves his family, good to his friends, et cetera, except that he doesn't like dogs. I find this to be completely incomprehensible. In fact, I've never met anyone until I met this guy that didn't like dogs that I didn't immediately dislike and distrust, even before I knew of their dislike for Man's Best Friend. People who don't like dogs have always seemed dishonest, untrustworthy, shifty, usually seem to have a cruel streak.
I'm sure there must be some people around here who don't like dogs, so defend yourselves, dog haters. I asked my friend about it, and he avoided the subject, and when I pressed, he got upset, like I was attacking him and he didn't have to defend why he did or did not like various things. Since he is a friend I dropped it, but I could care less about insulting the dirty soulless dog haters on the intarweb. So what's the deal?

I'd put it at 95% that he had a very traumatic experience with a dog when he was little.
Mostly people don't like dogs because they are afraid of them. I agree though. I don't trust people that don't like animals.

maybe he got bit when he was little or something. [/ QUOTE ] Exactly. Some people have just had bad experiences with dogs, or only been around mean ones during their formative years.

Re: Someone explain the dog haters to me.
Many dogs are loud, dirty, annoying, aggressive, etc. etc. They are a pain in the ass generally to take care of, many are ill-behaved, some bark all the time and keep me up. These are all good reasons IMO for my dislike of dogs. I'm not dishonest, untrustworthy, or "shifty" in the least either.

I don't like dogs either. The ones I've encountered smell really bad, bark all the time and are generally annoying pests. I hate when a dog walks up and starts sniffing my dick and licking my hands.
