Dogs aren't allowed in the malls here. Living in El Paso, just at the Mexican border I come across many children, teenagers and adults that are terrified of dogs. Yes, even my little Yorkies. Here it is because in Mexico, dogs run wild in packs and carry rabies and are very vicious so they have been taught to fear dogs from a very early age. Most likely she wasn't overreacting, just has had a bad experience. |
