Could your boyfriend ever have hurt him on accident? Maybe dropped something or tossed something that bumped him on accident or stepped on his foot ...? Anything?
I ask this, because I have a pit bull that my little girl had accidently hit with a sneaker while flinging her shoes off at the door one day when she was a pup and she would get scared everytime anyone would pick up a shoe for the longest because my daughter had hit her on the head and hurt her when she flung it off. After a while she realized the shoes weren't a danger anymore lol but she is also a 60 lb dog not a fragile Yorkie.
Could that be the problem maybe?
