This was my first thought. It took untill I was an adult, off of my major allergen and on constant allergy meds before I realized that the reason I don't like dogs is that I have an allergic reaction to them.
Growing up I just didn't like dogs and didn't like people who had dogs and could not articulate it better than that.
Honistly that is still my gut reaction but I now recognize that if I take extra allergy meds and completely strip and shower after an interaction I am general ok. But go over to someone house with a dog and then go do something afterwards (or ride in a car that a dog rids in) with them I am more short tempered, more aggravated and just have a harder time managing myself.
