Why is he doing this?

My little chihuahua is all freaked out over my son%26#039;s roller blades. Every time he sees them, even if they are in my son%26#039;s room, he just goes crazy barking at them.We thought he would get used to them after being around them for a while , but he hasn%26#039;t. No matter how long they are out , he barks at them.We don%26#039;t consider this a problem. We have decided to just keep them hidden away . I am just wondering why in the world could he be doing this? It%26#039;s kind of odd.

Why is he doing this?
He just doesn%26#039;t like them one of mine did the same thing over a remote control car my son had when he was little so glad when that car worn out
Reply:Dogs have quirks.My mastiff can%26#039;t stand the vaccuum cleaner-no one ever ran her tail over with it,or tried to suck at her with the hose,but every time someone takes it out with her around,she leaps up and starts barking and trying to bite it.I knew a dog that was obsessed with the broom,he did the same thing.Before you label it as a quirk though,consider if she was hurt by skates.Maybe your son ran her over with them by accident.Also,one last suggestion--dogs go through developemental stages in their lives,and one of those stages is the fear imprint period,where they will become afraid of random objects,often things they have seen millions of times before.Normally,they grow out of this.This occurs between 8-11 weeks usually,and again around 6-14 months.Dogs may experience,one,both,or neither of these stages.If you want more information on developemental stages,I have found the following website to be a good resource.

Good luck with your dog,glad to hear that this doesn%26#039;t affect your daily life (Some dogs quirks and habits can be a real nuisance!),and God bless.
Reply:Sometimes wheels and things that roll make dogs more upset than ogher things.
Reply:If you got him as a puppy, I have no idea. If he had a previous owner, something might have happened involving skates or things with wheels. My dog loves white stuffed animals and we have no idea why, but we think it%26#039;s because of her previous owners.
Reply:he probably smells something weird on them. How long has it been?
