Some dogs are just naturally scaredy cats, and some puppies can just be apprehensive about the great big world in general. Here's how you can help your frightened dog.

How To Reassure a Frightened Dog

Dogs can be frightened of all sorts of things. Other dogs, fireworks, thunderstorms, cats, the vacuum cleaner , random objects.

If your dog shows fear around something , speak to your dog in a calm, soothing voice. Avoid yelling or making loud noises, as this can increase their anxiety. Sit near your dog and offer gentle petting if they seek it out. Some dogs find comfort in physical contact, while others may prefer space. If your dog reacts in a frighted way to something, Do not punish or scold them. There is never a reason for punishment in a situation where a dog is fearful. When a dog is frightened, it is not able to learn, so the punishment will make things worse.

You can try desensitization : Slowly expose your dog to the source of their fear in a controlled and gradual manner. Start with low levels of exposure and gradually increase it as your dog becomes more comfortable.

Some fearful pups may benefit from medication, so speak to your veterinarian as needed.
