Scared of the air conditioner I tried to turn on the central air unit last night and Max went crazy. He was running around the house trying to hide or would just sit on the sofa and shake. The furnace ran all winter and he didn't mind it. He has never really liked the air return but never acted like this. What do I do - I hate to see him so scared. |
Is it a much louder noise than the furnace? He will adjust to the sound after awhile and when he's sure it wont get him. Just give him some comfort till he feels secure. |
I would just hold him, maybe give him a treat or two and try to engage him in some play activities and tell him it's ok. Maybe if you just go on like all is normal and fun, in time, he'll get used to it. Just a thought... Dana |
Scared little yorkies My Lacey does that with any loud noise. I just hold her and soothe her and hope she eventually will quit getting so scared. She even hides in the closet if the noise is really loud or the people around her are new, like when I just had new flooring put it. Now if I can tell ahead of time something will scare her, I hold her and talk quietly to her for awhile. She is slowly getting better. Then, of course, when she's ready for night night, she's like a wild beast to the bigger one, Chloe. It's like she becomes a different dog. |
Can someone turn it on for you while you take Max out of the house? Maybe if it's already on when he gets home he'll be ok. Tucker stands in front of the return and shivers. I keep telling him "well, if you're cold move away from it!" |
Oh, no! That won't do! You can't go without A/C! That is so funny...and sad at the same time! Poor little Max! |
It's so sad to see them get scared at certain things. Maybe a distraction with something postive like a treat, you dancing with music (lol), or the television on might help. |
I agree with everyone! I think you should try to soothe your baby and comfort him. Also try distracting him by playing with his favorite toy. I hope something works for you and your baby! Good luck! |
I second with you and it is not a good thing to be scared from such little thins so much.. |
