What is your Boxer afraid of?

[Mama_Zookeeper]

Mia my 2 yr old boston girl & Lola Kitty are afraid of the vacuum cleaner! they both hide in my closet until it is put back in the hall closet. Rocky the boxer is afraid of reflections. Any bit of glass he walks by sends him into barking fits!

In fact he acts like he is not scared of anything most of the time. But dont let him see a balloon he just freaks.

One of the only two times I heard Scrapper growl fiercely was once we were on a walk when a kid was outside playing with a balloon and he blew it up and then let the air out slowly so it made kind of a raspberry noise. Scrapper's hair went up all down the middle of his back and he gave out one of the most throaty growls....! The other time was when a stranger came to the door when my son was home alone. Go figure!

Scrapper used to be very fearful to walk over a metal plate in the sidewalk, but we gradually got over that, now it doesn't bother him.

Krose used to be afraid of everything!!!!! I mean birds, garbage trucks, umbrellas, sticks, the plane passing over!!!! everything!!!!
Oh.. and little children high pitched voices! :rolleyes:

Nowadays, I don't see him shaking, drooling or trying to get away from an uncomfortable situation. On the contrary, he insists on staying there until he solves the situation in his mind. Can it be he's a grown man now:D

Igor is very weird, he's afraid of us when we put our arms on our head!!!:rolleyes: :p

I was looking at them playing in the snow the other day, and put my arms on my head to be comfortable on the window, and he start barking at me!!!:confused: :p

I'm trying to show him it's ok, but he's not sure about it...

Bella hates Baloons! She is also afraid of loud noises (like things dropping), shopping bags, anything that you put above her head, she is a VERY jumpy little thing! However, when people knock at the door or if she hears a funny noise - she guards well! She is also afraid of some poeple in hats! The first time that we ever saw the hair on her neck stand up was when she saw a fisherman! She went crazy!!!!!

People find it funny! I say.........

You wouldn't understand............it's a Boxer Thing

Ikaika is afraid of thunderstorms. Rain is ok for him, but as soon as it gets loud he runs and hides in either the bathroom (if it's open) or the closet.

I actually think I know why too. When he was about 4-5 months it was raining real hard. He and his sister were in the back yard of my friends house. We got home from work and I didn't see them in the shed like his (paternal) parents. So we went out to look, and they were underneath the shed with water up to their necks. We dug them out, but we had to hold our hands over their noses to pull them from underneath. [/] Ever since then he is just scared of the major storms.

Mailani....well she is not afraid of anything. Girl has no fear. :eek:

Casey is afraid of fireworks. I hate 4th of July because I don't know how to tell her they don't hurt her. She spends days on my lap, because people let of fireworks for days before and after.
