BingBlaze n Skyla Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Oh poor baby :-( I would try if u can if it doesn't stress her out to much I would try and make her stay outside if something is scaring her so she can see it won't hurt her unless she gets so stressed out that she tries to escape her collar ,, or if u can work out what scares her the most keep an eye out for these things then if u spot them b4 she does try and distract her with her favorite toy or a special treat till you either pass the thing that's scaring her or it passes u , hope this help abit , I think I'd try the distraction thing first tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 How old is Mia?? Skye went through a "fear stage" a couple of times i wouldn't praise her or anything when she got scared sometimes we would stop and observe whatever was scaring her and she usually got over it that way but she used to be scared of all sorts of things but is absolutely fine now due to not making a big deal of anything and keep getting her out and about and different places noises etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Yeah, my First White GSD Bear (RIP Big boy ) Used to go nuts when a hot air balloon went overhead. Leaping up in the air and barking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valkyries Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 start by making noise in the house small ones at first then progress to louder noises, i.e hoover, music then to dropping things. praise her each time letting her know all's well. once used to each noise change it and the noise level xxxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
