Cynophobia is the fear of dogs.
I have it. If a dog passes by, my whole body tenses, I feel panicked and I just want to run. I will probably hide behind a person. It makes for a pretty funny scene and I have been mocked for this plenty. I have similar phobia of other animals as well such as monkeys. I won't say that I don't like animals but I feel very tensed around them. I am a sane person, know that a dog would generally not attack and my behaviour might be an incentive for it to do so. Still, I can't help it. I also know that if the worst comes to worst, the dog might bite me which is also not the end of the world. But I still can't help it. I would act awkward and make a fool of myself.
