Large furry dogs, or so-called "beasts" do not scare me.... snotty-nosed children however, DO!

.... When I was little I knew a couple of VERY large dogs, Major was a Great Dane who stood about 6+ft tall on his hind legs..... If you said "Boo" he would run and hide. The other was a female Mastiff named Rainy who was just HUGE... She would act like she was all tough but then when you said "hi" or even looked at her she would come up and try to "slime" you with her love slobbers!
