My 9month old Staffy is Scared of Everything?

Question

I don't understand why he is Scared,There is Just ODD things he does Such as: If i was to put the Newspaper on the Floor he Would Run off or Bark and Growl at it...My mother has a Hot water Bottle as soon as she gets it out he Runs and Hides under the Table even though he will come up and sniff it now and again but as soon as she moves it he will run and Hide??? If someone knocks the Door he will Growl and Bark but as soon as the Person comes in if he don't know them he will Hide under the Table nd Growl at them. He's not scared off Normal things like Loud Noises but odd things Like my little brother has a Robot of the Stig from Top Gear and my Dog would sit there for Hours Crying and Barking at it??? if we put it on the Floor soo he can sniff it he would run off...These r only a Few of the Strange Things he Does...
He is just really wierd HEEEELLLPPPP

Answer 1

have you scared him with any of them in the past?

Answer 2

It sounds like your staffordshire doesn't feel safe. This can be for many reasons.



My advice is to take the dog to a trainer. Your dog is a powerful beast and a scared beast is a dangerous beast. You have to be careful or someone might get hurt.

Answer 3

Hi



I think that with him been young he doesnt know what they are so he isnt sure of them. I also have a staffy, although she isnt as bad, if she see's herself in the glass she will go balistic.



I think he will grow out of it over time and when he gets older.

He's young, needs introducing to the world. He needs training and so do you.
