Is there any way to cure your pets fears?

Don't get me wrong, I like the fears and obsessions that came with the pack but there are some fears of objects that are just necessary in the home and are used frequently. It's pretty inconvenient to just ban that object from the house completely, so is there a way to cure your pets fear? Does just calming your pet when it gets scared help to eventually rid it of the fear?

    Does your dog have the Smart trait? If so, there is currently a bug with that trait that Smart dogs will never learn to pee outside on their own.
  • I know this is an old thread now, but I came across it, looking for help with the same thing. I went hunting further and came across a Mod to help with it. Basically, you can train your pets to not be scared anymore using the Calm Pet option when they're scared. It takes a few times to become permanent. If you pet them when they're scared, it actually reinforces the behaviour and removes a bit from their bravery! It's fantastically realistic in this respect.

    There are also Mods out there to completely remove pet fears or obsessions, if they're causing you annoyance. Google them and they're easy to find.

    Yes, I did.
