Mr. Pip gets violent

Oh boy, how funny. Mine want to EAT the vacuum. My past Sheltie Brooke used to do something similar though; she'd grab a dog bed and drag and shake it. Mr. Pip has turned out to be so handsome!

Thanks, Sharon! Mr. Pip actually did try to eat the vacuum at the outset, but I trained him to leave it alone. You can imagine the frustration this caused, hence his taking his anger out on a surrogate! It's the old "worrying the prey to death," which he also does when I won't play with him and he's obliged to fall back on his own resources. In that case he gets two toys ... one to have in his mouth, the other to bat around the floor!
 
Vacuum cleaners, brooms, coffee grinders, soda stream fill ups- the Sheltie world is filled with unspeakable horrors that need to be addressed. Love the displacement attack on mr squeaky-- so funny. I have actually been bitten on the leg when I ran our vacuum cleaner a couple of weeks ago-- that was a no no....and we had a discussion about that...

Oh no! Was it a serious bite, or just a herding dog nip?
