Kajirin Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 robovac...care factor of zero now Mine tolerates the normal vacuum cleaner now, but will move out of it way if he's walking around and it's out cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minimax Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 My mum has a statue on her balcony that Boston used to hate - he'd bark at it and give it a few meters space if he had to walk past it, but lately he's getting better. Last week he peed on it, which I think was a "screw you, statue" gesture :laugh: Buuuut then the other day he sniffed it, and because it smelt like him ... he wagged his tail a little bit, trotted off and didn't bark at it the whole time we were there, and didn't avoid it! I laughed and laughed and laughed, because the silly puppy accidentally made friends with the statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliwake Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Oh how I wish my puppy would make a truce with the broom! I know she will...eventually. x 2!!!!! I made some progress yesterday with a firm stay while I swept, but he wasn't happy about it. I usually have even less luck with the outside broom, and especially the evil rake!!

tikira Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I am lucky that the broom has them scattering fast!. Kira guards the others from the evil vaccuum, so the boys disappear when that is going too. Jingo is making progress with the "dog eating plastic bags", but the evil dog that sometimes appears at night in the window (his shadow) well, that sends him crazy :laugh: and he has a loud scary growl too, for a tiny Jack Russell.

_PL_ Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I thought they were all cool with it but somebody took revenge on the robovac by running off with the transformer and mangling it. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tikira Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Powerlegs, I hope you found the rat or intruder that did that, after all it could not have been one of the dogs- right! Actually I can just imagine the thought process there.... "yeah, that'll do it, can't move without power" Smart dog! Di Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I can just imagine the thought process there.... "yeah, that'll do it, can't move without power" Smart dog! Di There was no witnesses to the mangling of course, no guilty faces. I got the feeling they were quite pleased. :laugh: eta I should add that the first culprit was the cat who managed to corner the poor thing and handicap the little side sweep bristle. She probably got the dogs to do her bidding. Edited January 21, 2014 by Powerlegs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Gifts Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It seems my sneezes are public enemy number 1 with Tempeh! I recently sneezed on her while she was asleep and she jumped up and gave me the filthiest of looks. I've been working my way through the house the last couple of weeks doing a serious declutter so I've been sneezing a bit and even if she is not in the same room she will run and stand in the door way and give me a death stare till I stop. Maybe my sneezes mimic a truly terrible swear word in dog language? Maybe I'm calling her a cat shagger or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mita Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) Our sweet natured gentle sheltie, Danny, leapt to the attack when the printer suddenly sprang into action. Only way to make a truce was to put the printer up on a very high shelf. In his long life, he never made a household enemy of anything else... or outside the house, either.

ESCS Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Our tibbie has made an uneasy truce with the resident possum who stubbornly refuses to leave 'home' even with one determined tibbie hassling him. The possum would sit on the lowest branch of the tree hissing and carrying on at our tibbie while he barked at it. The truce happened one night when the possum somehow lost his balance and fell off the branch right on top of a very astonished tibbie. Confusion reigned and after a bit of a scuffle, the possum ran up the tree and our fearless tibbie came running into the house with his tail firmly between his legs! They are both now too scared of each other to hiss or bark. Peace reigns!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
