Why do you feel that way?
I don't love my Indian neighbours so much, of whom I have many, because they hate dogs and I'm usually going out with my dogs when I see them. They act disgusted and give me nasty looks and avoid me. My dogs are small and don't bark at them or do more than look at them, my old dog who just passed was blind and took no notice of them, but if I get in the elevator with an Indian person (or African or Arabic) they scream and act scared and act shitty to me and give me nasty looks. I realize pet ownership is not a big thing in these cultures, but stop screeching like I'm killing you when I take my 15 lb dog on the elevator and he's ignoring you. It's just rude to ME, if I was letting my pit bull corner you and jump all over you I get it, but otherwise grow up. They also don't really say hi or anything, and Caucasian people pretty much always do, so it just doesn't seem very friendly.

A lot of people especially dog owners are ignorant of the fact that the rest of us don't care for their dogs, so many shitty owners in my apartment make no effort to leash their animal properly and the damn things wanna run up to you to sniff or slober or bite you or go barking at the worst time, and so many nasty people don't even clean up after taking their dogs out to shit on the property, I had to carefully walk around my building to avoid dog turds.

I used to work with animals professionally, and I never noticed Indian or Muslim people disliking pets. IME, caring about animals is one thing that brings people together across cultural divides.

I've noticed that as well. I remember once while walking the dog I came across an Indian guy and his kid. I assume the kid wasn't born in India because when it saw my dog the kid's face lit up with excitement, but before the kid could even take one step towards me the dad grabbed him and with wide eyes was saying "he is scared of dogs, he is scared of dogs!". I was like... Ok dude, I've got my dog on a tight leash, I'm just walking by. I'll try not to scare your... Kid... anymore.

Occasionally they will like them, but usually just kids who are curious.

I started to get a little ornery with the kids when they screech and run away, and tell them that being afraid of animals is a bad way to go through life. You don't have to want or have pets, but you should be reasonably able to interact with animals.

Well that isn't me, I'm super careful about keeping my dogs apart from them but I can't help sharing hallways or elevators very much. And a lot of them really do scream and run and be theatrical about it. Some of the kids are curious and I let them pet them always or answer questions,clearly many of them have never had a pet before, which is fine. But honestly it's pretty often that they absolutely hate your dogs.
