I have had this problem for a while and dont know what to do.
Whenever Buddy here's the sound of the iron board coming out he runs to a corner in the kitchen he normally goes to if he is scared or wants some alone time. I have no idea why he is like this and I am wondering if he may of had a bad experience in the past. He has had 2 previous owners before us.
I have tried giving him treats everytime I get the iron board out so he associates it as a good thing but he doesnt eat when he's scared. I have even tried putting the actual iron on the floor so he can sniff it and familiarise himself with it but he just seems to get even more stressed.
Any ideas? I'm not sure whether it is the board or the iron but he wont come near either.
