My Brazilian-American former sister-in-law, Susan, got bit by a dog when she was a tween/teen and never got over it. I remember she had problems with our Dalmatian Ashes even though Ashes was quite sweet. Unless you got out of bed and your female owner-- my Mom-- was still in bed. My Dad found out the hard way that he is not going to back in bed with a very protective Dalmatian guarding her. That was in a private home though and Ashes was good for the most part playing with other dogs and people.
I feel for you xcaligirl. I would feel very different around dogs if I got bit by one and if one seriously maimed me-- which pit bull mixes can do very quickly-- then I would probably be scared of most dogs for the rest of my life. Our dog now is a great source of stress relief.
This is Ashes:
