I tried to put my kitty cat on the vacuum cleaner once to ride around while I vacuum, but he didn't like it.....cats don't like vacuum cleaners..... (ok I'm only kidding)

They also don't like getting wet either.....

I would love to see a photo of this dog though

Glad you're only kidding about the cat. It's a noise thing with the vacuum.

CINCINNATI (UPI) -- A retired Cincinnati firefighter says his pet Shih
Tzu loves to sit on his riding lawnmower with him when he cuts his
grass.

Former firefighter and paramedic Bill Rinear said he bolted a wicker
container to the top of his lawnmower so Minnie the Shih Tzu can enjoy
taking part in the outdoors chore, The Cincinnati Enquirer said.

The sight of a dog sitting atop a moving lawnmower apparently draws it
fair share of attention.

"People get out of their cars and just stare at us," Rinear said.
"They wonder: 'What kind of an idiot has a dog riding in a basket on
top of his lawn mower?'"

"I'm the kind of idiot who used to unzip his sweatshirt and tuck her
inside," he told the Enquirer. "When I would cut grass, she would
stick her head out of the opening."
