As far as I can tell my Huskie randomly decides to be scared of anything in existence for 0.5 seconds at a time and then is fine with whatever it is. She was scared of the basement for the first nine months or so that we had her.
I'm very sad that my Husky/Heeler has lost his hearing, but at the same time he is not afraid of thunder in the same way anymore..... So there's a silver lining. I have a picture of him hiding in the dryer during a storm, and many in the bathtub.
