Jamie is so afraid of the vacuum. I don't blame her, it is insanely loud and hurts MY ears, too, I can't imagine what she thinks :(
I know its like THE WORST vacuum, ever. I don't recommend this vacuum to ANYONE. The only reason we have it is because HJ got it for free in a drawing when he graduated... heh. Free is free... right???
In order to get her to be not so afraid of it, I broke up some treats and placed them on it. She was so afraid she wouldn't even walk NEAR it!! Every time she would get close, I would praise her and if she took a treat I acted nuts! Of course, when I was looking she wouldn't go near it, but as soon as I turned my back she took all the treats LOL it took her like... 30 minutes before she even got close, though.
