If you check out my post below....I have had this happen with large breed dogs. It is a general phobia. It is preception. Remember the cops that shot the boy when shooting at a rat snake in a tree? How about the tv show cops, I caught an episode when they were beating a black ratsnake to bits because it was climbing near someone's house? The thing is that they are supposed to protect, I get that and I have friends that are law enforcement, but when they do dumb things this way they come off poorly and they perpetuate the irrational phobias.
