Dogs like humans have phobias. Their highly developed sense organs make them vulnerable to fears. Most of these fears can be associated with poor socialisation, previous bad experience, extreme/sudden noise, or even genetics.

Common Dog phobias include:

  • Thunderstorms.
  • Heights.
  • Fireworks
  • Car rides
  • The vet

Some of these fears can be overcome d with time, exposure and training. For others, your dog might have to live with it
