[QUOTE="totoro, post: 60996, member: 3155"] No TM it is the bugs or animal... I don't even think N knows what germs are in regards to animals... she knows some can bite, which scares her. But she knows a butterfly won't hurt her. But if one lands on her... watch out!!! Dog's I think it is the upredictability, in her mind. The crazy, tail wagging, jumping, excited... scares her. But even when a dog is calm she is scared. Cats can scratch, jump on her, bite... but she loves ours. As long as they are just laying there letting her pet them. I have caught snakes, bugs etc and showed her that I am OK holding them. Let them go... didn't make her touch them or come near them. I hug the dogs and give them kisses etc... It is something in her little head, nothing traumatic has ever happened. That I can pinpoint??? A mosquito bite here and there which she HATES!!! ugh, poor husband has had her for 3 weeks now and he said, " I don't know how you deal with this" made me feel good.... [/QUOTE]
