I grew up with two dogs (including one that was in the house from before I was born) so I never had the opportunity to become afraid of dogs.
We would have at least one dog in the house were it not for the fact that my sister and members of her family are highly allergic to them. We value their company, so we don’t have dogs. We do, however, keep hamsters as pets.
The Wolf (who does NOT view the hamsters as snacks).
