    My dog is afraid of the vents on boulevards. He won't bark at them but he won't walk on them and if I try to put him on it he won't budge. He's also afraid or cautious if there's something new in a surounding that wasn't there before. For example when he was a puppy there was a pile of blankets on the floor that wern't there before and he started growling at them and he was creeping up slowly to them like they were going to jump out at him.

    He's just smart - ghosties and spooks can creep out of vents when y'aren't looking ... Okay, so it's just strange breezes, but try explaining that in "dog!"

    For odd fears (and I'm talking FEAR, not dislike)

    one of our RB pups, Gracie, was TERRIFIED of water. Water EATS puppies. She'd turn into a quivering mass of Dane/Lab jello at the mere thought of crossing a stream!

    Belle used to be afraid of the floor vents. She would bark whenever the furnace came on, at least for the first few days that it was turned on (we didn't have a/c for summer time). She just gradually got used to the change as winter wore on and stopped barking. I guess the game got boring to her.

    how about cobwebs?

    Our Bower has many strange habits but his most recent obsession is cobwebs. We have to clean our walls weekly to keep the cobwebs and spiderwebs from appearing but if we haven't gotten them all-he lets us know. He will sit and bark at the cobweb until we remove, then he'll search for another until all the webs are gone. Then he rests peacefully in his crate and goes to sleep-he's a weirdo.

    Pandy is afraid of dry leaves, yes leaves. When we're walking in the fall, on the sidewalk if there is a path of leaves she will jump around them! ahahahah it's hilarious.
