I agree with agillityk9Trainer.. I had a friend who had a pup and even though I did not realize it, my voice must have seemed booming to the little guy, a beagle. Since anytime I came into thier house the pup would lay down flat and submissive. Then I would in my normal voice say something to the effect of 'Hows it going boy?' or something of the sort. And the poor guy would just almost run straight through a wall with to get out of there.. After this happened a couple of different times, I changed my tone, knelt down and called him over with a treat to get him used to me and slowly let my voice go back to normal... In a couple of visits I like that I could enter the house and lightly call him, he would then come to me I would praise and after that things where done normally..Just needs a little get to know and trust you time.
