My dog is scared of the wind. Specifically the draft, so when it’s windy outside he pushes up against me.
He’s also scared of things in the home that can be moved. Like if he loses a toy behind a box and he tries to fetch it, and the box shifts a little, he jumps back and looks at me all pathetically, like the box just scolded him.
Could be anything really, a chair, an aerial root from my monstera, a shoe horn. If it moves when he interacts with it, and it isn’t a door, it’s spooky!
