Is it possible to be a dominant dog, but also a scaredy cat?

I guess I associate dominant with "toughness", but my baby girl shows all the signs of dominance, yet she is scared of the vacuum, the broom, the hair dryer, plastic bags being rustled...

A lion walking across the Serengeti is afraid of nothing, put him in the center of an 8 lane highway you will have a different animal.

My large hound is dominant..She is brave enough to take on a bear, but afraid of loud noises..not of storms and such, but the vacuum cleaner, or something that I drop, or that sounds loud when it breaks, etc..
