What Is That Big Noisy Thing?

Hi everyone! Now you may have seen on the side about "Bess and the Corner". Bess, when scared, goes and crawls under this desk in the corner of the family room/kitchen. She sometimes will also go up against the side of the couch that is in a shape of a big "U" so it's like a small den. And rarely she will go inside her crate, but that can be a little too close to the kitchen with big noisy stuff. What is she scared of you ask? Lets see...the blender, the mixer, the vacuum, really any loud, noisy and odd shaped object, that seems to be "alive". Now the vacuum is the most challenging for her, since it moves around the house. She has to decide whether to risk from going out from her desk, to say, her crate, (or her other hiding places), or stay safe where she is. She has a frantic look on her face, unsure what to do. But once the vacuum gets close enough, a little too close for comfort, she tip-toes away to a new spot (making sure the mechanical beast does not hear her-:)-). Even Bonnie is a little afraid of the vacuum! But she will go and check it out, until it gets to close and then she slowly backs away.

So, to show you our little frightened Bess, here are some pictures:

These are from a couple months ago when my mom was making soup, and used a tool to mix the soup(it's really loud) I'm not sure what it's called though...

This was just a couple days ago:

She fell asleep while she was hiding under the desk! Aw poor Bessie!

And here is one where she took comfort with some sneakers as she hide from the horrible, so-called "hand mixer" Oooooo scary...

So that's all for today! Hopefully I can video the next time we bring out anything scary (in her opinion), maybe even the vacuum! Bess is already quivering at the thought of it, so I'll drop the subject for now. I added on the side of this post an item called "My Blog List" that shows 2 blogs, made by my friends(2 different friends) who decided to make blogs about their dogs after seeing Growing Up Bess. Please check them out the makers of the blogs would really appreciate some views and followers! Also I added "Follow by email" so you don't need a special account to follow my blog, you can just get email updates (instead of from me!) If you haven't voted on the poll yet, please do! I made it before this post but it's related to the topic so please vote and comment!

Have a great day!

P.S. As said before, the website that I make this blog on, had a major update so the formatting is different, and they have some problems so it takes a while to make posts for me so I appreciate your patience!
