A horrible memory from my childhood! 😭😭😭

Okay I am gonna explain why I am afraid of big dogs and needles! I LOVE dogs and I realise needles are important for saving lives so I am definitely not anti vax cause vaccines save lives however I wish I was at times cause of a memory from my childhood that is not nice! Also I LOVE dogs and I hate animal cruelty but personally I am scared of big dogs but I am not scared of small dogs at all! 🦮🦮🦮

So when I was age 5 in the year 1990 one neighbour was mad on drugs! I cannot remember him and he died two years later when I was 7 years old from drugs but anyway he had three big dogs who he abused! 🤬🤬🤬 According to my mom he would punch and kick his dogs and beat them! 😭😭😭

So one day I was outside the doorstep at age 5 with my daddy in the living room! I was safe as the door was open and I was waiting for my grandparents to come! And one of the neighbours abused dogs escaped and I tried to stroke him and he aggressively bit my leg! 😭😭😭

He bit my leg so hard there was blood on the pavement and I screemed! Luckily daddy was there to chase the dog away and if my dad was not there my dad said it could of been life threatening! 😭😭😭

My leg was bleeding extremely severely and I was a sobbing mess and the pain was crazy! Blood was dripping everywhere so I was immediately taken to the hospital! 😭😭😭 The neighbour was arrested and the police found so much drugs in his home too! 😤😤😤

So I had to have stitches without anything to numb the pain so the needle going into the wound over and over REALLY hurt and my mom and daddy were holding my hand comforting me as I sobbed and cried my heart out! 😭😭😭 I was only 5 years old! 😭😭😭

The scar took about a month to heal however I still carry a slight scar on my leg from the dog bite today! The dog was a big rottweiler and this memory is by far my worst childhood memory! 😭😭😭

I also do not hate the dog that attacked me cause remember he was abused bless him! 😭😭😭 The neighbour went to jail for animal abuse and taking drugs and he lost custody of his three dogs and sadly he died in jail two years later! 😭😭😭 My leg still has a faint scar and thanks to my daddy it was not worse cause if my dad was not there in time who knows how much worse I would of been from that attack! 😭😭😭

So that is why I am scared of dogs and needles! My mom got me a tiny Shih-Tzu named Molly when I was 6 years old a year later and me and Molly were best friends! 🤗🤗🤗 Mom got me Molly to try and help me be less afraid of dogs but Molly was tiny and I was not afraid of small dogs at all! 🙄🙄🙄

That was the worst memory from my childhood! 😭😭😭

Between the ages of 4 and 7 i got bit by a dog almost every summer. Then one year i got bit by a turtle! Never quite warmed up to getting the tetanus shot, and not in the arm at that age...

@MommyLucy it's about learning to understand dog body language

@GerOttman My tiny small childhood Shih-Tzu Molly was my favourite dog in the whole world and I miss Molly everyday! 😭😭😭 I use to give her treats and cuddle her lots too! 🤗🤗🤗 I love hugs! 🤭🤭🤭

That must have been terrifying for you 😥 I hate it when people who can hardly look after themselves own dogs and everyone else pays for the consequences. But I am glad you managed to make friends with a smaller dog soon after 🤗

@MommyLucy You are a beautiful, loving soul 🤗 Perhaps Molly and that big dog share a kennel in heaven and have endless walks where they chase clouds that look like rabbits! 🐶🐰

@SunshineGirl That would be lovely! 🤗🤗🤗 At least the big dog is not getting abused anymore! 😇😇😇
I'm sorry that would be terfying at that age! We've always had big dogs growing up ( great Danes) but there gentle giants. They think there small dogs

@icantholdit01 Dogs are lovely bless them! 🤗🤗🤗 It was not the dogs fault he attacked me as bless him he was beaten and abused! 😭😭😭 I bet your great danes are lovely though I would still be scared if they are too big! 🥺🥺🥺

There are a lot of things that carry over to us from childhood, some involve fear some involve excitement and arousal.
Youll have to chat to me first I've tried to chat twice it won't let message you anymore
Things like that always stay with us but its how we deal with it that matters.
I'm so sorry that happened to you 🤗
Would you like to talk?
