my toy poodle mix, molli, is afraid of EVERYTHING. she is afraid of plastic bags, paper, and paper bags. most things that look strange and make strange noises. if we have to change the garbage or something she runs out of the room with her tail between her legs. if we pick up paper or something she does the same thing. she is also afraid of dark places. if we throw a toy behind the tv or something, she will bark until we go get it for her. i know its not a big deal, but i dont want her going through life being scared of things like that. Does anyone know why she is afraid, or is it just because of the toy poodles sensitive nature? Is there anyway i can show her there is nothing to be scared of?

(she turned 1 year on the 17 of aug.)
