What is your dog afraid of?

What is your dog afraid of?

Getting a bath - well, water actually. He's the only dog I know that will kangaroo hop over a puddle that's too big to jump cleanly over. Just WON'T get his front feet wet.

And yet he'll plough through 12" of stagnant mud no problem.

Ty is petrified of water but he doesnt mind baths lol which is weird. Kaos i have yet to find anything he doesnt like he used to be scared of tractors but is ok with them now x

Our cat
The other morning I got up and walked downstairs....normally Blue is right behind me....went to let him out and thought were is he... so I went upstairs to find the cat sat in the bedrrom doorway and blue sat down with his head down like he had been told off

Sandy will only go out in the rain if she's absolutely desperate for a wee so I've gone for bath in the poll as I've no doubt she would go mental.

Kaiser hates any sort of bang or noise he aint use to he hides he is terrified of fireworks. also he is scared of bags that start to fall on the side he runs a mile hes a right wimp

memphis is terrified of buses he just cowers when they go past him and also large vans dont think its the noise its more the shadow

the hover

Bigger dogs

My previous staff was - loud noises, vaccume, rolled up bin bags, squirrels lol he was a big wuss BUT was beaten before we got him so he had an excuse!

Dempsey knows who's boss, but he isn't afraid of me. He can be wary of me at times, but not scared.

well i think Katie is afraid of me, cause when she has done something wrong (which i must say isn't very often) and i correct her and give out to her, she runs off into her bed and lye's in the submissive position, maybe im wrong but it looks like she afraid of me when she does that.

Mine does that too, I only need change my tone in voice and she starts quivering and sulks off to her bed, my last one did too! Its like I've really hurt her feelings but shes been the naughty one!!

exactly Janey, same here with Katie, are they showing that they are afraid of us, or just taking the p..s

All I Can Say Is Frogs

Maz is terrified of loud noises fireworks, thunder etc or rain. But yesterday a kid had a spud gun (very quiet and about 3 gardens away) and im not kidding u would have thought the mafia was after her she broke out of the run (went thru it!!) nearly took my french doors off and head butted zeros cage desperate to get in it, I was so stunned i just looked at the destroyed run and couldnt even react i was so shocked, shes never like that lol

Thats Henry, he eats the pipe thing. But he's terrified of my washing basket!! he also tries to bite the water out of the hose, and hates bath time!!

Grover is scared of some bigger dogs,very loud noises and that horrible monster called the Vaccum cleaner! He's a little baby,but then again he is only ten weeks old

Suki is scared of loud noises, espicallt thunder and large bodies of water. She loves getting a bath and doesn't mind puddles but will not go in the ocean. She has overcome her fear of the vaccum and simply attacks it now.

If you have seen some photos of Gus and Kelly...they will pretty much do ANYTHING without fright

Our new pup,Maybel is scared of some bigger dogs and loud noises,but I'm sure she will eventually get over it

The Bold Violet fears nothing! She's too busy attacking things to bother with being frightened.

hhmm I noticed you didn't include wooden mouse traps on the list... my Jethro is petrified of them.. he just has to see one and he goes to pieces!! I think it is because when we try to set the ruddy things they always go off and we jump and yell out.. and he has picked up that they are scarey things!!

well harley is afraid of plastic bags that blow down the street its the only thing he barks at really it quiet funny to watch he flies down the street when it passes him

Skye has shown tonight she is scared of elastic bands =S lol .. i have one on my laptop keeping my charger still because its broke and need a new one, but i was rolling it and she went mad .. ran to the side of me, then up on my shoulders and then ran off the couch and hid by my mom .. i felt so guilty! lol

well, Bundy hates his bath but I wouldn't say he's afraid of it...just hates it.
OK (takes deep breath), my Bundy is afraid of me in the kitchen around 6pm when I go to make dinner.
weird? oh, yes.
It started one night when my OH noticed that, when I got up to go and make dinner, Bundy immediately got off the couch and hid under his legs.
we thought "what the?" and the only way OH can get him into the kitchen is if OH actually walks beside him and stays there with him. The instant OH walks out, Bundy shoots off after him.
I know I'm not the best cook in the world but, honestly, Bundy doesn't even have to eat it!!

This has been going on for about 4-6 weeks and we have no idea what is going on.
He'll come into the kitchen any time of the day except that time when I go to cook dinner!

Buster is terrified from the vacuum. We put him in his crate when it’s on, and he barks like mad and circles around in it, such a shame

I guess Rocky is most scared of things his doesn't understand, i.e loud noises, the ironing board (much like the o/h I could go on and on ), and traffic.

Stellar is scared of swimming pools and the kerbside drains?!
The pool was because my husband took the teaching to swim a little too quickly, but we have no idea why she has developed a fear of the kerbside drains. if you walk too close to one she bolts out of the way!?

sox wont go out the back when raining as the gutters are dripping by the back door,yet when im hosing the back down shes in front of the jet trying to drink it,and end up chocking and gagging as shes trying to drink the full mains pressure in the mouth,and she loves having a shower,i just dont understand

RoXy has a dislike for Sirens....when she hears one ( even very faintly in the distance ) she barks like crazy.
Just the other night she was barking at a snail, but can't work out if it was because she did'nt like it or if she was trying to get it to play

aww knowing RoXy she would have been saying to the snail "Will you be my friend??"
