Links to SCARED and SURPRISED ANIMALS

BUDDY, WITH HIS HANGDOG LOOK
OUR BELOVED BUDDY was afraid of everything and everyone when we first got him. The problem was that he'd been taken from his mother before he was properly weaned from her.

He'd cower in the corner of the basement, and when he went outside he'd bark for hours. Before he passed, he could relax a bit with Holly and me, but he was afraid of everyone else.

One day, Buddy got up the nerve to join me upstairs while I was watching a movie on TV. He sat near the carport door, as far away as he could. When I got up to get a drink, he ran downstairs.

He came up to me another day and stuck his head under my hand; he wanted to be petted, as a "normal" dog would. It took him years to develop a doggy smile, but he found it just in time.

Here are more stories of dogs or other animals that are frightened or surprised. Enjoy.

Dixie encountering the trash truck

WE WERE AT THE DOG PARK
Dixie got a dose of the trash truck today when we took our morning walk down the lane. She'd never before seen or heard the trash truck, and the beeps, crashes, slams and other sounds unsettled (scared?) her.

I had to hold her back, as she seemed to want to protect me from the truck. Still, it was obvious that she was scared of it.

She looked that way long after the truck was out of sight; she could still hear it, of course.

It reminded me of the first time Lady (now deceased) met the trash truck in 2013.

Still, I have to admit that Lady's reaction was much stronger. She reacted to trucks, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, lawnmowers, weed whackers and more. And she pulled violently toward them.
