Poppet got the fear / what are yours scared of?
My pup is not scared of many things but today she was horrified as we passed by a bus station where between the queuing people was a lady with an iron cage containing a cat! Pups looked at it and run Away just to come back look and run away again . the bus came and peppa tried to go on it following the lady .It was so strange I couldn't believe it I'm just assuming something scared her but made her curious as well so she fight the fear or maybe she tried to play with the cat some game only she knows as she loves playing/ chasing them .

Motorbikes although she has calmed down she doesnt go as mad when she sees a right noisy one. She gets a treat if she doesnt go mad . Mia doesnt mind fireworks or thunder i still keep music with plenty beats and noise on for her tho. I hide in my cupboard with thunder and she comes through has a sniff and looks at me like im mad.

All sorts of random things! A bin or bus shelter if it doesn't look quite right!

Lula hates motor bikes and was lunging like crazy we have calm her down a bit with it and she alot better. If we try treats on a walk she gets really naughty to get the treats so we don`t use them now. Hmm she also scared of are cat but to be fair he very handy with those paws and i think he likes the facts she runs from him. Lula also doesn`t like small dogs or dogs that suddenly come into her space. We took her to the vets yesterday to be weighed and everything was going great she was behaving so well and didn`t react to the staff who was crying. The poor thing really did not want to be at the vets and ended up sat on his owners lap
The problem happened when a little yapppy dog started barking and trying to come near her. Lula started lunging and snarling at it and then wanted to take on the world :oops
something new can frighten her till she realizes its not going to hurt her.

My old staffy was scared of our hatstand, she'd walk past it with her tail between her legs giving it a wide birth. I think it was because it fell over once and scared her.

Milo doesn't like those great big builders sack thingies containing sand or bricks that they deliver by crane & leave in your driveways. She's really hard to get to walk past them but apart from those, and cats lurking behind walls she's okay - so far

Re: Poppet got the fear / what are yours scared of?
[rtl]I still can't work it out because the pup is almost never scared most certainly not of cats or any other animal and the cat didnt even take a notice of her. Could it be the cage? I've never caged/crated her but her breeder put the pups in a big cage so maybe she connects it with separating from her mum? Am i being too deep??They are so strange sometimes maybe it was just one of her mad games .[/rtl]

Rocky isn't really scared of anything that we have noticed ................................. yet
He however is not that keen on boxer dogs which seems odd given his name
