He discovered a unique way to overcome his fears

We all have fears. Some of us might fear heights. Others might fear small confined spaces. It’s not just humans who have irrational fears. Some dogs have them too and they have their own creative ways in dealing with it. For Bentley, an English Bulldog from Vancouver, he has an irrational fear of ladders and cables. The dog has struggled with this fear all his life. They used to completely paralyze him, but recently, he discovered a unique way to overcome his fears.

In the video, watch as Bentley approaches a cable and ladder. At first, he’s hesitant. He moves very cautiously, and once he can reach the cables, he immediately turns around and moves backwards over it. Bentley walks like this until he makes it through the doorway. Then, he turns around and walks normally again. Moral of the story – if you are too scared to face something, just go backwards!
