It probably won’t surprise anyone that dogs are capable of experiencing a wide variety of emotions, including fear.

Today we'll talk about what can scare your four-legged friend.

People

Not only puppies, but sometimes even adult animals tuck their tails and make a plaintive whine when they see a stranger.

Moreover, dogs are not afraid of all people in a row, but of those who have a certain appearance, for example, wear a large hat or have a long beard.

The type of person that can scare a dog depends on the conditions in which it was raised, as well as how the animal was socialized, who its owner interacted with, etc.

Children

In this case, the fear that the dog experiences is associated with the unpredictable behavior of the children, who, without wanting to, can cause pain to the dog or cause other discomfort with their behavior.

Vet

Pets often experience real horror when they realize that they are being taken to see a doctor.

A pet especially often reveals its fears and tries to hide if the visit to the clinic is not the first and the dog understands that unpleasant procedures await it.

Vacuum cleaner

Of course, we can continue listing dog phobias for a long time, but we decided to close this top 4 with a working vacuum cleaner, which can bring wild terror to a dog.

Therefore, if you do not want to listen to endless howling, it makes sense to go for a walk with your dog while you clean.
