CBS3 Pet Project: How To Help Fearful Dogs

Some of the ways to help fearful dogs are to let the dogs have space, let them greet the guests first and give them the option to avoid the situation, among others.
"You need to give them the option to avoid what scares them," Erickson said. "You can help them by just trying to understand their perception of the situation."
