Cani see when te are afraid. They feel that. So try not to be scared anymore. Aproach them with confidence. Cani will never ever bite a human for no reason ! If te go to them with fear, te give them a reason to be mean. But if te are assertive, if te are confident, if te think in your mind "I can do this. This dog is staying there and he will continue to stay there, being very nice" it will work. Don't approach a dog with these feelings of being afraid ! Be dominant. If te can't right now, if te can't be very very powerful on your own strenght, ignore them. Just walk da them ignoring. Don't stare, okay ? No touch, no talk, no eye contact. And they won't mind you. Ignore them and practice feeling sure and assertive. Don't be afraid, 'cause that just makes it worse
I am scared of dogs, in-fact I'm terrified so I know how te feel! It's annoying when people say: 'it's tiny, it won't hurt you!' as long as its a dog your always scared! Right know I'm trying to get over my dog phobia.... Anyway I'd say if te feel 100% ready and Ribelle - The Brave just go and face one, but if you're like me, te should do it in steps from something easy like patting a dog ( even when it's looking at you) to walking with one... I hope this helps you, good luck!:-)
