Vaccum Cleaner as well

I luv Miko · 11-29-2005, 09:49 AM

Miko is scared of the vacuum cleaner and the paper Shredder, He will attack the shredder anytime we try to shred something, he'll run from wherever he is
and bark and attack it

The vacuum cleaner is the only thing I can think of right now. My other dog loves to chase the vacuum. He thinks it is a game or something....he hates it when he is in his cage and I vacuum. He starts barking bc he wants to be out and chasing it....hahahaha

Sango is afraid of basketballs. She'll run away & bark like mad when she sees it on the floor. Then she'll try to sneak up on it, run by really quick and nip at it. Which of course makes it move around a bit & she flips out more. One day while I was cooking in the kitchen Sango was laying at my feet and my fiance came home from work. Little did my poor missy know he had a basketball behind his back. She went darting over to give him kisses, and as he squatted down he dropped the ball from behind him between his legs and i swear you should her going "OMG HIT THE BRAKES!!~" It was like she skidded & did a 180 sooo fast. She was like a bat outta hell. And my poor baby left a trail of peepee behind also. Poor thing. I ran over & started hitting my fiance (play fighting) & lil' miss Sango was barking at him from behind me. She was sayin, "Why'd you hafta do dat for Poppa?!~ It skeered the peepee oudda meee!"

Princess is afraid of the ironing board. She doesn't like the sound it makes when we open and close it. She runs past it quickly and then barks at it. She hates a wind up toy my son got at McDonalds but as soon as it stops making the noise she picks it up and starts chewing it. She also hates the vacuum cleaner.

My Brandy girl is not affraid of anything. Sometimes I think that gets her in trouble. She chases and attacks anything with wheels including the vaccuum, bicycles, cars, skateboards.. etc. She also attacks the broom and barks at the hairdryer. Before she came to live with me she was run over so I dont know if that has anything to do with her hatred of wheels but I am assuming it has something to do with it. Oh yea.. the doorbell.. thats a biggy.. complete and total melt down.. tee hee

Same here,, not fear, but more like hatred! He hates anything that moves across the ground,, crutches, wheel chairs, walkers ( not good at work, when someone comes in with one

) brooms, rakes, mowers, bikes, skateboards, skates, hoses, sweepers, I could go on,,it is endless,,, But the strangest thing He goes nuts for is if I get out a TAPE MEASURE,,, he looses it, trying to attack it,,

I dont get that one,, I guess its that the tape is out then it flys back and disappears... and he hates the Yard stick too, and the drill, and any tool, hammers, screwdrivers,, OMG,,

Hes is NUTS not that I list all these! LOL

misty is scared of the mop and broom. she is terrified of them she runs under the bed and starts to shake

poor thing i feel so bad for her but, what can i do i have to clean my house lol

luvmymonkies · 11-29-2005, 11:39 AM

This is kind of funny...Maddie is gets scared when I cook on the stove. She's fine with the preparation, but once she smells food on the stove, she'll stay under the sofa or in the bedroom and won't come out until it's done. I just moved into a new place with new appliances. The warrantee papers were in the oven, so the first time I cooked anything, the papers caught on fire and there was lots of smoke. She was terrified of all the smoke. I think that's why the stove bothers her now. Poor thing!

Our dancing Christmas tree. Every year since we had Lacey, we had put up that tree. It fit on the coffee table and it sings and dances. It is motion activated. Lacey would bark like crazy at it and jump a mile in the air every time it went off. Her last Christmas, she got brave and started swatting it with her paw. She was always scared of other dogs. My brother had a lab. And when he brought it over, she ran behind the couch scared to death. But, she started to get braver in her senior years, her best friend and boyfriend turned out to be Buster down the street. He is a bloodhound. He never tried to hurt her, loved her to pieces. Even though I was nervous about such a big dog coming near my yorkie. Lacey was just crazy about that dog. If anyone even mentioned the name Buster, her face would light up. She would run to the window looking for him while barking.

luvmymonkies · 11-29-2005, 03:43 PM

Oh, yeah. I forgot that one. Maddie is also terrified of any other dog besides Monkey. She tries to crawl up me like a frightened cat...lol.

Dawn125 · 11-29-2005, 03:46 PM

I don't think my Brandy is afraid of much of anything unfortunately. She wants to beat up the vacuum cleaner. She does act pretty terrified if she is placed on the trampoline. She doesn't weigh enough to move it but I think she can see thru it and walks like she is afraid she is going to fall.

Fran42478 · 11-29-2005, 04:12 PM
