Personal symbolism
Fear in a dream may gather around a decision, a journey, or another person's difficulty. Notice whose fear you felt and what it interrupted. Being afraid to proceed connects hesitation with trouble at home and setbacks in your enterprises. Seeing someone else afraid shifts attention to a friend whose own problems may prevent them from doing you a favor. For a young woman, fear of a dog has a more specific connection: doubt about a true friend. The image and relationship involved may help you recognize what kind of uncertainty the dream is bringing forward.
