I know what you mean about pets.
Being at a party with a dog present, or being at a place where you're allowed to bring dogs, and I'm relatively ok. Not only do I have one guaranteed soul to talk to, but dogs really break the ice.
I think one of the main problems is my behavior. These are nice people, and have never been anything but nice to me. It's me who acts oddly and not in the friendliest way. It's that darn intimidation factor. My usual strategy of looking for someone who looks more uncomfortable than I do doesn't work, because they are all very comfortable with each other. Sigh. I wish I were a better actress.
