Well Harley has SA so I guess saying hes afraid of being alone is safe lol other than that I have yet to come across something that Harleys afraid of suprisingly. Hes actually pretty brave (hes not always the smartest dog so thats probably why).
My lab is afraid of water, whether its a bath/hose or a lake, she isnt thrilled.
My dally growing up was terrified of fireworks and thunder. We had to sedate her on the 4th every year becuase she would get so worked up we were afraid of her having a heart attack or something. And durring storms usually one of us kids ended up sleeping in the kitchen with her because she refused to be left alone (she wasnt allowed in the house other than when she was freaking out like that) Its a nice change to have a dog whos not afraid of that type of thing.
The one time I have seen Harley terrified was when my son cranked my inlaws sterio up full blast (one that has 3ft tall speakers) and, while Harley was on his bed right in front of the speaker, turned the sterio on. It wasnt on a station so it was ear piercing static. Harley rocketed off his bed and attemtpted to jump the wooden baby gate from the bed (a good 6+ feet away), ended up going though it and ran to the far end of the house shaking, giving me the look like "what the hell was that?!?!" Once I got it turned off I sat myself down on the floor infront of the sterio to calm myself and my son down and I called Harley over, suprisingly he, though very cautiously, came to me when called and we sat there for a good 10 minutes until we all calmed down. I worked with him for a few minutes after to get him ok with being by the speaker again, at first he wasnt wanting to go anywhere near the speaker, but it didnt take long for him to get over the whole incident. Fortunatly the second time my son did it Harley was in his crate in our room with the door shut so it didnt bother him.
