Nebo was terrified to stairs when he was younger. He was even scared of Reggie for a while. He got over it lol. But he is still petrified of vacuum cleaners. I know a lot of dogs are, but he really freaks out about it (coming from a dog who is scared of nothing now). When we first got him we went on that camping trip in our 5th wheel. My mom just *had* to vacuum it every day, and the first time he saw it, he ran up and hid under the bed. I bet it was probably much worse for him because it was in a small area. Any type of vacuum cleaner (or even something that makes the same sound) sends him running even now. He's a lot more scared of them then Reggie/Smokey (not that they really like them either).

He's a bit cautious of strangers too. Well, some people he comes and jumps in their laps, and others he will back away from...for no particular reason. He never growls or anything like that...just acts a bit scared around them.
