When i was a kid, i wasn't scared of dogs. There was this neighbourhood dog that i was very close to. Jaguar could sit down and give you a handshake, allow me to put my hands into his mouth.

I think the turning point in my life about dogs was when i saw a pack of dogs having a bloody fight, tearing off their skin and other parts of their body.

Now i'm an adult and have this pathological fear of dogs. I fear them so much i can't go near one, and can go through another street if i see one. Even local dogs.

Dog enthusiasts, what can i do to overcome this phobia? I love dogs and want to own one.
