Sooo funny this subject has come up! Willow completely FREAKS OUT when we even go near the closet where the vacuum cleaner & ironing board are. I mean she completely goes from our sweet little girl to Linda Blair in the Exorcist! I'm talking complete frenzy!!! This is just about the only time she barks and believe me, she makes up for lost time. Yesterday I decided that when I got home from work I would nonchalantly take the vac out and leave it in the middle of the living room floor for the night. I also set up the ironing board and left it out. She did freak out a bit...but I want her to get used to seeing these things out so she doesn't have so much anxiety when I go near the closet....next step is to turn on the vac so she gets used to the sound....we'll see.....
