So I am wondering what it is that makes your dog go crazy. Is there a special trigger that causes brain disconnect? For my dog, Mac, it is a motorcycle. He absolutely is convinced those things need to be killed. I am not sure if it is the faceless rider, or the sound of the motor, or some other thing about a motorcycle, but whatever it is causes my normally goofy dog to loose his mind. As our weather here improves, it is once again becoming an issue for us.
I have seen this in other dogs as well. I have two Staffordshire Terriers who are set off by bright, day-glo yellow jackets. I asked the owner and he had no idea where this aversion came from. They were also rather determined to kill motorcycles. Always wondered what would happen if someone rode by in a yellow jacket on a motorcycle.
Picabo freaks for roller blades and skate boards. The concept that a human can move along the ground without their legs walking is just too much for her to handle. Taking her for a walk along Alki is always a challenge. Back when I walked her every day she was learning to deal with her aversion, but now I only have her a week or so a year for vacation care, so we just avoid it.
Oso used to freak over thunder and fireworks. Bart freaked in the car. Ginger couldn't handle Great Danes...something about having another dog that much bigger than her really set her off. And little Chloe is completely against the existence of German Shepards. They are to be soundly scolded before they are allowed to breathe the same air she does..
So, I am just curious. What makes your dog crazy?
