<p>My guess is that she was quite scared by the skirt event. If you continue to expect her to be scared she will pick up on this like Anna already said. It is best to just act like there is no problem. You could try to do something to take her mind off of it like play for a long time with a favorite toy or even learn a new command. </p>

<p>I get extremely upset with people when they try to tease my dog because he isn't looking at the situation the same way a person would and it often results in fear of the person or action that was intended to be funny. This even goes with feet grabbing, blowing in the face, or unnecessary loud sounds or fast movements when being presented with a new object.</p>
<p>We got a new thermometer three days ago and it makes a small (very short and quite) beep when it is ready to be used. This tiny beep has had Clutch scared for the past three days. We are talking full body trembling and attempting to hide in the bathroom while the thermometer is in use. Once the thermometer is put away Clutch will press up against us or hop in bed and tremble between us. Clutch never cuddles (ever) and even though we would really like to take advantage of all these extra seemingly sweet behaviors we just ignore him so that he doesn't over exaggerate the situation.</p>

<p>It could be. My suggestion is to just forget about it and treat her normally, with normal expectations, or she will pick up on your worried mood and it will compound hers. And don't let anyone play tricks on her. It may seem cute in the moment, but it is confusing and frightening to her.</p>
