Ghost period?

Ally is now 13 months and having (what I call) a ghost period

It seems like everything is scary and needs to either be barked at or escaped from..

I spoke to Carole about it and she told me Star have gone through the same. Only Star´s were coursed by at a bad experience at the vet (hope its ok I tell Carole).

But Ally haven´t had any bad experiences..at the vet or any other place

Have any of you tried that or something like it with your dogs??

Saffy spent 2 months barking at her shadow! Between ages 11months to 13 months.

Everynight she would fall asleep and then wake up and see a shadow and bark at it for about 10 mins.

ROFL Roxy

But was it only shadows or people, things etc. aswell?

Just shadows mainly! She would chase them as well!

Hmmm. Lucky you it was only shadows..

Ally seems to be scared of everything regardless

do you make a fuss of her when she does this Amts?

No.. I try to ignore it and move her attention to either training or playing (depends on the situation).

Doesn´t work for long though

thats the best way to deal with it. Just carry on as if nothing happened.

I just think its weird that all of a sudden she gets so scared of everything.

Even people she knows, places she has been to since she was a puppy, etc..

Its very frustrating a I feel sorry for her aswell.

But I guess you´re right. I just need to be patience (which I´m not ).

Thanks Carole

its just a fear stage they go through. It will get better
