Of course, your Anatolian Shepherd is one brave, confident, cool as a cucumbers dog. Dogs that were bred to guard livestock from bears, wolves, and human rustlers are the epitome of brave. That is until fireworks start or a storm rolls in. Then they turn into terrified pups, trembling and drooling.
Just as people have fear triggers like spiders, snakes, heights, public speaking, so do our dogs. Thunderstorms, fireworks, loud unexpected noises, changes in routine, and being left alone are common canine triggers.
