Why is my daughter so scared?

eryone in my family love dogs. But when we go over to my brothers house, my now 6 year old little girl gets scared out of her mind. My brother has a 260 pound English mastiff, the dog is really sweet. But for some reason my little girl doesn’t want to be anywhere near the dog. From day one, she has just been terrified of the dog, she was really hesitant to meet the dog the first time, she did it. But then I noticed that she was afraid.

why is this? We have a border collie at home and they get along and play together just fine. When my brothers dog starts barking or stands up, or just walks near her, my daughter will run to me wanting to be picked up. She doesn’t even want to be in the same room as the dog, even when I’m holding her In my arms, she doesn’t want me to go anywhere near him.

of course I respect my daughter and I make sure she feels safe. But why is she like this?

My brothers dog has done nothing wrong. Why is she acting so scared of him? Like I said we have a border collie at home and they play together.

, is my kiddo doing this on purpose because she wants attention? Why is she acting this way? Because I know she loves animals. And again both dogs were introduced to the exact same way, and the border collie is also bigger and much stronger than my daughter, she has to look up a tad to see eye to eye with the collie. Both dogs have identical temperament. They are the exact same. Yeah she’s scared of the mastiff but not the collie.

But you're not really a new parent if this story was repeated two years ago tho. What's your aim?

@SatanBurger I've heard of weirder recurring questions.

@LordShadowfire Me too. These people that do this are an enigma to me lol. They're trying to fish for a specific response to me, though I don't know what. I could be wrong though
@SatanBurger My guess is that they get off on talking about children and try to steer people in that direction. There have been several here lately, seeking “advice.”

@OlderSometimesWiser Or one person on multiple accounts.
