Brooke Busteed commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Yeah, Billy knows the sound of his Daddy's alarm when he locks the doors. His Daddy is away all week on work so when he gets home for the weekend he hears that horn and runs straight out the door to the gate."
Linda commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Isn't it funny how they know the sound of a certain truck? Max hears his daddy's pickup before it ever turns the corner and he starts his welcome home barking."
Brooke Busteed commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Funny about the FedEx truck, Billy actually knows the sound by heart and when he hears it (I take him to the office everyday) he RUNS to the door and waits for his cookie, he has even jumped into the FedEx truck."

Cathie commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"A big Fed Ex truck delivered big box to our house last week and Sky was afraid of the truck (he could see it through the window) and the box when I brought it inside.

Linda commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"About the only things Max is afraid of is the hose...and I've never turned it on him...the lawn mower and thunder or fireworks But I have to run over him with the Dyson to get him to move. Now Katie...she is afraid of…"
Bogart the Cardigan commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Bogart does NOT like umbrellas, folded or up. There was once a discarded one on the side walk and we had to cross to the other side of the street to pass it!!"
Brooke Busteed commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Billy can't handle ANY type of floor cleaning monster either, it is soo bad I have to put him outside to vacuum.

Becky S commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Not much phases Lilly, Brody on the other hand also hates and floating fluttering type thing, balloons, kites, etc. I guess both also hate the vacuum, lawn mower, sprinkler, water hose, ther'e probably more but that's all I can think…"

Carrie Baxter commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Wrigley absolutely destroys any stuffy animal that makes a noise or moves. Her average time to kill and disable the noise/movement is 2 minutes. Note: the dogs only freak out when the treadmill is in use. It is right by their cages…"
Ingrid & Ein commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"Ein hates the vacuum and water. She also hates roofers! (As in men working on a roof). Whenever we pass a house in the neighborhood that's getting a new roof, she growl at it until they're out of sight. "
Dora & Rocky commented on Carrie Baxter's blog post Corgi Dislikes?"A few years ago, hubby and I went to a Star Trek convention and we bought some stuffed Tribbles (they actually vibrate and make that funny noise like on the show). Any time we activate the Tribbles, Rocky would freak out and hide in a corner."
Profile Information
- About Me:
- Our family loves our Corgi's. Can't imagine having any other dog. Our current puppies are our 3rd and 4th. Our first was Sherlock from Wyse's kennel here in Cape Coral and our second was Dana from the same breeder.
Warning: Sherlock was a Corgi who kept eating palm nuts. He ended up having 3 surgeries and after eating his 4th palm nut the vet had to put him to sleep. He was only 2 years old and it was very difficult, He was a red headed tricolor. Dana was our female and we had her for 12 years.
- Welsh Corgi Breeder?
- No
- About My Corgi(s):
- Ryno and Wrigley are the Corgi's that generously allow us to feed, pet, walk, and generally take care of them. 1/2 brother and sister these two are from central Florida.
- I have:

Corgi Dislikes?
Posted on March 28, 2013 at 9:27am 20 Comments 0 Likes
We recently acquired a treadmill for weight loss purposes (ours, not the dogs) and both my furbabies are terrified of it. If our bedroom door is open, Wrigley hides under the bed (27 lbs) and Ryno gets as close the under it as he can fit (31 lbs). Do any of you have similar items that scare your big bad brave dogs?
Ryno is also scared of anything that blows in the wind (kites, balloons, banners, yard decorations, palm fronds).
Thank you.

Does anyone with 2+ Corgi's recognize this scenario?
Pet, Snack, Toss a toy Play, Repeat.... My hands are covered in shed fur, my arm is tired and my Corgis are full, or should be. And yet they want more.
