Pet-rified

Being a Rottweiler, many people think Del is a tough little cookie. Being such a large, powerful dog, you'd think that he would ooze confidence and take anyone on.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Del has some strange fears that people can't believe when I tell them. Here are a few of the most bizarre:

  • Oven gloves
  • Salt and pepper mills.
  • Traffic cones.
  • Ironing boards.
  • Hoovers. 
  • Hair dryers.
  • Balloons. 



The MoneySupermarket Pet Insurance team asked a number of pet bloggers to tell them what their pet is scared of, with some funny results. They also asked bloggers to tell them what strange items their pets take a liking to. I think the strangest one is balloons!

What are your pets scared of?

  1. Oven gloves? Doesn't Del know that those can take out yummy things from the oven just for him. :)

    I can't think of anything right now that our dogs are scared of. When Storm was young she did not like vacuums, but I worked on socializing her to that. She also didn't care for carts and wheelchairs and such, but she got over that too.

    1. Yes, the oven glove is a strange one and very recent too. I'm really not sure where that has come from! Del hates the vacuum too, but he's recently starting to get more used to it :)

      Do your dogs like anything that's a bit strange? My friend Louise's dog, Harvey, loves balloons and always carries one around with him :)
