I know this is an odd question but at 1st Drago would go crazy at the vacuum, no big deal its loud and moves. Now hes barking at the broom when I sweep. Does anyone have a boxer that does the same? Does anyone know why they do this? Thanks for any feedback.

Jersey just follow's me around when I sweep. He used to Bark like crazy when the vaccum was going, But now that we have a new one I guess he figures this ones nicer or something cause he follows that around too. The only thing he's still scared of is the Swiffer Vac.

Mine does! She has ever since she was a little puppy, even after I let her sniff it and put it on the floor with treats on top of it. She doesn't seem scared, she just acts like play-attacking the broom is a fun game.
 
Daisy doesn't mess with the broom... But the lawnmower and my daughters powerwheels... She chases them. The jeep I don't worry about she can get bumped and not get hurt but the lawnmower... We have to scream to get her to move so she doesn't get something puree'd... She scares the crap out of me with the lawnmower... But she tries to get my daughters tires on the jeep

Sidda doesn't pay a whole lot of attention to the broom, mop, or vacuum anymore although she love to bark and chase them when she was younger. Henry loves to go after all 3. I have to put him in the other room if I am going to do serious cleaning...lol. You can't get any work done with a 55 lb boxer hanging onto the end of the mop!

Mine hate the broom and the vaccuum. I literally have to put them in their crate to vaccuum at all and the broom is almost just as bad!! If the broom happens to fall down they bark and try to attack it! Silly kids!

Pooh doesn't even pay attention to the broom or vacuum anymore :) when she was little she hated the vacuum and would chase it.Dozer hates them both and tries to take the wheeels off ! His mortal enemy is the dust mop.y time I use it he tries to drag it off the floor. Once I left it by the steps to get something else and I came back to find him dragging it all over the living room :LOL: Bownser has a problem with the snow shovel ! Barks at it a nd tries to attack it- if he's outside with me while I shovel- I usually have to put him back inside until I'm done :)

Barks, growls, jumps at it with all four feet.....you name it! The broom is apparently a bigger enemy than the vacuum..... :)
 
I can't imagine trying to mop and sweep with Daisy... I haven't tried it with her... I know she likes feet though... She always has a plan of attack when I am in BDUs and my steel toes are the enemy... Thank goodness I wear steeltoes to work... She loves to bite them
