mikewales - no I would not get rescue (unless it was a cat!) for the reasons you mention. As I have agoraphobia socialisation would be puppy class at the local vets plus the local pub where all shapes and sizes of dogs often visit (with their owners lol!) and obv. out and about. I have to cope within my limits - I would love to have done some agility with it (even little ones can have a go) but I know that is a pipe dream at the moment. Thanks x

snow/haz - No it is good - as others who read this post may find it helpful - I actually prefer posts where others put up questions and ideas particularly on something so broad as pets.

Hi jessica - thanks for your response, the distraction of a pet is something I am hoping will work - like you say take your mind away from focusing on panic by focusing on the little furry (or big furry in your case if he's a lab/hound lol!) x
