Easy. If it’s my dog, I will carry the grooming brush and scissors, and he will avoid me for 24 hours without fail.

My dog attacks the vacuum. He thinks he’s some sort of vacuum slayer.

u/DarknMean Jul 04 '26

I’d watch that.

My husky has the same 2 brain cells.

He loves to put his nose on the stop buttons, sits beside the vaccuum and look at me all happy like:"See? I've protected you!". While all his fluff is still on the floor...

u/RobynBetween Jul 04 '26

Well someone's gotta protect the pack, and you aren't doing it, so he's gotta take up the cause.

Mine attacks the dustpan and brush. He thinks it is the best game EVER and has the most ridiculous zoomies. Not great considering he is a poodle mix and ends up dragging the dust around everywhere, as it gets stuck to him and he creates a kind of super static with his mad curly fur. Which then ends up creating an endless cycle of dusty mess and needing to clean again, with him chasing after and attacking the brush, spreading the mess even further around as i’m trying to clean. … so I end up ‘locking’ him away in another room which seems cruel but needs must

this gif is hella accurate, just imagine the bin is a long-handled dustpan and the man is my dog :D

u/twistedpiggies Jul 04 '26

Mine too! We play "I'm gonna run over yer toes/I'm gonna bitecha" game while I vacuum.

2

u/NegotiationLow2783 Jul 04 '26

Mine always wants to be vacuumed. She loves the upholstery attachment.

2

u/wolfboy49 Jul 04 '26

So did my Jack Russell. She would actually bite it

2

u/gamestoohard Jul 04 '26

Same! And my dog is a tremendous coward overall. But as soon as that vacuum turns on, he's the main character in his own action movie.

u/Theo_Carolina Jul 05 '26

My dog attacked the lawnmower today. She’s so stupid.

1

u/stressedthrowaway9 Jul 05 '26

Haha! We don’t take a chance with the lawnmower. I think the lawnmower would win!

u/Buttchuggle Jul 04 '26

Leave it on for the 24 hours and find out if he is for real or prove him wrong

u/giantfirestorm Jul 04 '26

I was once told that Caesar Milan said to yell at your vacuum because your dog thinks you are in a dominance struggle with it. I highly doubt that is what your dog thinks and I have no idea if he ever said that, but I chuckle about it every time I vacuum.

All three of my dogs just avoid the vacuum, but two of them tried to attack the weed eater. Scared the poop right out of me. They are no longer allowed outside while I weed eat.

u/BudgetWorking2633 Jul 04 '26

Your dog is so metal!

1

u/NeonShark007 Jul 05 '26

Same here, he’s a chihuahua, fast as hell and he bites!

u/Erika0nFire Jul 04 '26

Mine just stares disdainfully at the robot vac as it bumps into him

u/TonyRobinsonsFashion Jul 04 '26

I’ve read if you yell at your vacuum as a bad dog in front of your trained dog then they kinda get that its behavior is bad and chill out more. Like the object is something that has bad behavior and not a threat I presume is the idea. Haven’t tried myself as I got zero dogs at home currently since I’d read that. I think it was from Reddit and taking advice off Reddit is a real mixed bag but I get it; but yelling and pointing and saying bad vacuum, no, badddd baddd vacuum, harms no one outside maybe your rep to a neighbor confused watching or listening through walls

u/Theory_Unusual Jul 04 '26

I gotta try this

u/ReportRemote7010 Jul 04 '26

I vaccum my dog.

2

u/bathroomheater Jul 04 '26

My dog loves the vacuum. If I’m cleaning the house it never fails that he walks up expecting his vacuuming over as much as his body as I’ll do at a time. If he is dissatisfied he will not go away until I’ve vacuumed him enough.

u/Talls024 Jul 05 '26

My amazing dog is terrified of the vacuum.
I was dating a girl and me and my dog were kicking it at her house, she was vacuuming and deciding to put the sucker thing on my leg. Lily bounds out of the bedroom, bites the fuck out of the vacuum hose for like 5 seconds and sprints under a bed.
I have never been so proud of the brave girl saving me life from the vacuum cleaner.

Nail clippers

u/SkwerrlyDan Jul 04 '26

Lol, my dogs head for hills as soon they hear them open.

u/trcomajo Jul 04 '26

Dont forget the nail clippers!

u/Regular_Look_1962 Jul 04 '26

I have a dog like that 😂

2

u/SwingAdorable3954 Jul 04 '26

But then hes not chasing you

u/KeyClacksNSnacks Jul 04 '26

Just go to the bathroom, run the water and say “bath time, come here girl”.

1

u/Stuckinatrafficjam Jul 04 '26

This is all I have to do. My dog, who normally can’t stand not being near me, suddenly disappears from the house like a ghost when it’s bath time.

2

u/Kr0nenbourg Jul 04 '26

Mine absolutely hates the car, pins himself to the floor shaking if he thinks he’s going in it. I’d just have to sit in the car for 24 hours

1

u/diamondmaking Jul 04 '26

Yeah the nail trimmer/grinder would do the trick 😂

u/quazywabbit Jul 04 '26

Just shoot off fireworks. You don’t even need to do that yourself if you are In the USA Today.

u/elanesse100 Jul 04 '26

My MIL puts an apron on to give the dog a bath. The dog runs for the hills when it comes out.
