Are you coming Mom?

Basenji Talk
  • My husband is a truck driver and often has to get up around midnight so he heads up to bed hours before I do. Every night when he heads upstairs he will ask the dogs if they want to go to bed and they go rushing for the stairs tails wagging eager for sleep but then they stop on the first landing and turn to look at me. Coming mom? and thats it! They wont go higher. If I walk towards the stairs and put my foot on the first step they will start heading up but when I turn and head off in a different direction they run down again. Then hubby will grumble that he has to sleep alone again. Mom one, Dad zero :D

  • LOL… I hear that.... mine will follow Dad upstairs... but within 2 minutes they are back down again...

  • My 2 go visit Lou when he heads to bed early, for their nightly ear rub…then back to me until its "under the cover" time...

  • Our female goes to bed with dad and are male stays out with me. I think she likes to sleep on moms side of the bed and streach out. Ive come in a few times and found her with her head on my pillow. :)

    @Patty: When I have to take those of mine that are phased by vet visits I also make sure I include an interesting walk near the surgery. In that way they know that the visit is just a stop on the way to the walk. Oh what a great idea! I'll definitely use this. Thanks! :)
  • Toys are for babies, Mom.

    hopefully Dex is just teething. I worked very hard to keep toy-drive in Zest as it can make training easier and more fun. And she still often gets a treat for retrieving or tugging her toys.

    I have decided to keep Baroo, and I hate to be so back and forth on the issue, but I am sure you have all been there at some point and understand. I am going to start a new post, so please see that one for further explaination. Thanks for all of your advice so far, I know I will be needed more now though!

    The absolute worst thing about this time change (aside from the lessened amount of daylight walk time), is that Stormie and Nikki were so used to their dinner being served at 6:30 PM. Now they start pesting me at 5:00 PM for dinner and they put on those, "PLEASE MOM! We're STARVING and wasting away to practically NOTHING" eyes! Ha! Little rugrats is putting it nicely! :D ;)

    dmcarty, so sad we both lost Bs to U.P.S. I hope that people are paying attention so that it never happens to them.
