There was a little girl who cut through the park near my house last year and was attacked by a "friendly" dog. This child was near death she was mauled so bad. I followed the news story for a long time and I think she was in the hospital for three or four months.
We all love our dogs but animals are just that. Animals. When their instincts kick in friendly goes out of the window.
My neighbor has a teeny yorkie that weighs maybe 5 lbs. This dog is so aggressive and nasty I can't even go in her house anymore.
I can't blame your daughter a bit. I have a dog and *I* am afraid of unleashed dogs.
