Dogs go through weird/funny little phases sometimes. With mine at one point he suddenly became incapable of going up the stairs on day. He'd been running up and down those stairs all his life, and in fact had been on them that very day.... but all of a sudden he seemed unwilling or incapable of going back up.
On his next vist to the vet I had him checked out. No injury, no sore legs, nothing. He was in his prime and as fit as a dog can be. It was just one of those little psychological things they go through sometimes, and it passed.
I'm quite thankful that I took the time early-on in his life to train him into curbing his barking. That was some time well spent on my part.
