Anyone's yorkie growl and bark at the vacuum sweeper - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

They all seem to have their quirks... Pepper goes crazy when the printer runs, he tries to attack it (imagine a vicious Yorkie spitting and trying to bite it and yap yap yap) - oh boy, we're working with him and it's getting better. He was TRYING to do it with the vacuum but I'd stop vacuuming and have him go out of the room and he doesn't even pay the attention to it anymore.
Edit: and my mom's Yorkie hates the new front-loading washing machine - he didn't even notice the old one, a top-loader... lol

Coco loves to help me clean - always chases and barks at the vacuum, bites and barks the broom or mop and pulls the feathers out of the duster!

Coffee just sits and looks at his crazy sister.

OMG YES. The minute that I take it out of the laundry room she starts barking and try to eat it. It is so funny.

i have just had Pixie for one week now..and when i first switched my vacuum on i didn't know how she would react..for safety..cos she's so little..i put her in her crate..i could tell she didn't like it but she was very good..i vacuum every other day and always put her in her crate as i'm terrified of stepping on her, i'm sure if she was out of her crate she would probably bark and growl..she was growling at the washing on the line the other night..and at my watering can in the garden because she hadn't seen it there before! she's so funny!
