Dog terrified of cameras Anyone ever heard of such a thing?
Jackson, my Yorkie, is FINE with cameras.
This is actually a problem relating to my moms cocker spaniel/poodle mix.
She's almost 4 years old and is absolutely terrified of cameras. It is the strangest thing. She's never had any traumatizing moments with them, as far as I know, but the minute she sees anything resembling a camera (even before it flashes or anything) she freaks out and will run into another room. All I have to do is take my cell phone, point it in her direction, and she's OFF! I mean, I've heard of dogs not liking getting their pic taken but never heard of a dog that will run into another room at the pure sight of a camera (or anything that resembles a camera....) I can't even video tape her without her freaking out, putting her tail between her legs, and running off. She came from a pet store but they got her at 8 weeks of age, she's almost 4 now and as far back as I remember has had this issue. I don't know if her fear is from being a puppy mill dog or what. I literally have like 3 good pictures of her from the last 4 yrs and about 50,000 of Jackson in the last four months!! lmao |
