    wow, thanks for all these great replies, they have been great...remi is truly a great dog...the hardest thing is she was socialized very young, but the neighbours dog got her twice...we know this is why she is fearful of many dogs, much worse when on leash or tied camping...if she has her choice, she will choose to go the other way, never confront...as for people, she can be skiddish, but not with people who come to our home, only if we are out...we are definately going to be working with her and all these book recommendations sound great, i will have to check them out for sure...she is slowly getting better about weird things like the dishwasher...funny thing, as a pup, if it was left open we would catch her licking everything inside, then one day her collar hooked on the bottom tray and when she went to move, it came with her..scared the crap out of her and she ran and pulled the tray and shattered dishes all over...we are working on this one...she is such a "people" dog, always wants to be around when we have people over...we just got to get her out more and get her to realize that people outside are great too....i know my husband and i, and our 3 teenagers, gotta work together...thanks and any more advice is always appreciated...you have made me feel SOOOO much better

    The good news is, at 20 months, for a Lab, she is still a puppy. So with careful and consistent training, you can help her overcome these fears. She may never be the fearless wonderdog, but she can be a better, calmer, and happier girl.
