So, my dh bought me a new sewing machine (its a basic model Janome 8077) about 2 weeks ago.
I have 2 dogs, a Maltese and a Papillon. I used to go upstairs and the dogs went with me and laid in their bed(s). Well, when I got the new machine, about the same time, my Papillon decided he couldn't stay in the room with me....I thought at first, something had happened and he was scared. He leaves the room, and if the baby gate is at the bottom of the steps (to keep them upstairs with me) then he goes to the lowest step and lays there. If he can get downstairs, he stays on the couch....so strange!
But now, I'm thinking, this new machine must have a different sound, or a high pitched whine, that I can't hear, and he can??? I wonder if that's possible.
This dog has really sensitive hearing - he hears things and barks at them and its the smallest noise. When a plane goes overhead, he always looks up - I've never seen another dog do that.
Just curious if anyone else has ever had a reaction like this from a pet???
