Dog in dog's clothing

While looking for Dobi pictures I came across this:


It got me to thinking... would something like this trick the subconscious or would the brain automatically recognize this as a Doberman & trigger a fear response?

Are people who afraid of dogs (or a particular breed) only afraid of the adult or does it extend to when they are puppies too? If they are afraid of big dogs are they still wary around small ones? Do they have to be in visual range or just knowing they are they cause anxiety?

Please don't feel obliged to answer... this is pure curiosity... Ariel & I are well suited.

Baaaaaaaaaaaa!

What Metal Are You?

Attack Averted

Hey Onka... wasn't  Attleborough where lots of brothers went?

OTTAWA (AFP) - A Canadian was credited Friday with foiling a 16-year-old Briton's plot to firebomb a high school in southeastern England by reporting the boy's online threat to police, said a local paper.

 

Montreal resident J.P. Newfeld was logged onto an Internet chat forum over breakfast on Tuesday, when he spotted the threat to burn down Attleborough High School in Norfolk with 950 students inside, said the daily Globe and Mail.

  

Newfeld notified the Norfolk Constabulary, who detained the boy outside the school, carrying a jug of fuel, matches and a knife. He was charged with threatening to carry out a criminal act.

  

"You don't take stuff like that lightly especially with all the school shootings that seem to happen on a yearly basis," Newfeld told the Globe and Mail.

  

The boy had posted his threat on Newgrounds.com, a website for sharing music and animations. "Today, at 11:30 GMT I will attack my school with arson and other forms of violence. Those bastards will pay," he wrote.

  

The Globe and Mail reported Newfeld chatted with the boy online after notifying police in a bid to stall him.

  

The boy was apparently motivated by bullying, according to a web page said to belong to him.
