My puppy's being weird. He's 7 months and he's a husky/chow/pit mix. To start off, when he was about 5-6 months, I brought him to PetSmart so I could maybe socialize him a bit. (NOT PetsMart classes) He reacted very well to a dog who was there and he was really submissive to the other dog. He was also doing well with people too. But around here, he gets scared when people try to pet him and he pees b/c he's so scared. He also pees when someone new comes over (from excitement). After 5 mins, he warms up to them and is fine, but it's like that with every person around here. What's even worse, is if a motorcycle passes by, a lawn mower, weed eater, or big truck, even the UPS truck pass by, he gets scared and freaks out. I've been trying to get him used to these things. I've already gotten him used to barking dogs and he seemed fine when my friend just now passed us on his bike. He used to be afraid of bikes. But anyway, will he grow out of this? And no, I don't baby him when he's scared.
