My post was not directed at someone in your situation, it was directed at the people who are IMO control freaks taking the "easy shot" and (again IMO) sadists who zap the neighbors dog while it's in its own yard.

I would never suggest that you or anyone are expected to enjoy my dog, nor would I suggest you give PUMP-KIN a try because she is different. Clearly, you have tried to rid yourself of this phobia and have learned to respectfully deal with it.

You're probably better off without the expensive golf course view. I honestly have always gotten more from therapy and meds than golf. But hey, that's just me.
