“what’s your point,” Poncho asks Carmen

I laughed out loud at this one.

Good one Carmen! Insightful and surprisingly calm!

Well Carmen now you can buy the new and improved vacuum cleaner !

I think it’s the mask.

… and most humans are not afraid of vacuum cleaners, but many are afraid of chains saws (especially if wielded by someone wearing a hockey mask).

Poncho has watched the movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre too many times.

The chainsaw is more fun than the vacuum cleaner.

It isn’t the sound that they hate. They believe that the vacuum is going to suck them up. I have one like Poncho that attacks when he sees it, even before it is turned on.

Because Poncho can control the chainsaw, not the vacuum

No, but you should be!

My first beagle used to bite the vacuum when it was in use. I really miss her. The current one just patiently moves around to avoid getting too close, very politely. The second one would jump up on furniture and just stay ahead of “trouble.”

Not just vacuums. Our first Sheltie would attack and bite my mom’s mechanical carpet sweeper.

Vacuums suck.

I can see that Carmen’s winter wardrobe will be in view from now til late spring. Moannnnnn

Chain Saw Definition: Gas powered, man operated, noisy beaver.

It’s not the fear, it’s the annoyance of the vacuum noise…..

Good point, girlfriend.

Dogs are really complex creatures.
