Cocker Spaniel Stranger Danger and more

Nimrod the Cocker Spaniel puppy has had a barking day today, being scared of a balloon, a rock and an old lady walking past the house. I helped him overcome his fears of the balloon and the rock and he then enjoyed himself. Your dog sees things very differently than you and, what seems perfectly harmless to you can appear dangerous and threatening to him, so always try to see things through your spaniel's eyes, and, if necessary help him to understand and assure him.
