Welcome! It's always nice to see another poodle mom on the board. I don't have any suggestions other than just love and reassurance. My daughter's first Swissie was afraid of empty milk cartons. She had him from eight weeks of age so there was no possible prior bad treatment. Dogs, like people, come with their own built-in idiosyncracies. My co-worker adopted two sheltie puppies from the same litter back in May. She says these two little boys are totally different from each other. One is a scaredy and one is a daredevil. Just enjoy your little one and, oh by the way, may we see some pictures? Pretty please.
