I think dogs fears can be a lot like a toddlers. Some toddlers don't like coming in contact with Disney looking characters, others don't mind a bit. My daughter at 18 months did not like relatives that had beards - she would not go near them, nor did she like Santas of course.With my son, it didn't phase him one bit.

Some dogs like the realistic animal sounding toys, others are fearful of them. My one cat does not like it when we wear sunglasses and the other two could care less - same with the vacuum; two cats are afraid of it, but the other one looks at it as if he will overpower it. Living creatures are all different with their personalities and temperaments and how they come to be afraid of certain things is sometimes a complete mystery.

Emilie, sounds like a good suggestion you made to Mabel; okay, and I just read the Rainbow Bridge stuff on her site also and the picture with the Corgi and the baby is just too much.
