Speaking of Animals

After reading Lisa's story with her cat, I thought I would tell ou about my little episode.

I have been sleeping on the couch since I got home from the hospital last Monday becase it is easier for me to sleep on my side. Well after my dog's initial indifferant reaction to my coming home(I had never been gone longer that overnight. I think after nine days he thought I wasn't coming home) he has been sticking to me like glue. He has always been my baby and sometimes I'll look over and he is just staring at me with the cutest little face.

Anyway, Saturday night I got up to go to the bathroom, I never turn the lights on because I have pretty good night vision. Well I was coming back into the room, saw where he was and started to walk around him. Either he moved or I missed seeing his paw and I tripped and started falling forward. He jumped up, but unfortunately right in the way I was falling. When I made contact with him he growled and when I knocked him dow he barked really low and scared.

Forunately I landed on my knees and one elbow. He jus walked out from under me, turned around and started licking my face. I layed down on the floor for a minute or two an I think this really scared him. Well it turns out neither of us was hurt just shooken up. Now he really doesn't leave my side. Except at night. He sleeps across the room staring at me.

LOL Jeanne. Im not laughing at what happend but the fact he sleeps accross from you staring. Bless his heart. When I was a child we had a Chilaula. She loved my mother so much. When we would leave to just go shopping we would come home to a trash can that had been turned over. She wouldnt eat the trash but she would do it because she was mad. My father even put a heavy rock into the bottom to stop her from doing it. When that happened we would come home to find her sitting in the top of it.

My little brother had to have several eye surgerys when until the age of 5 each time the dog would refuse to eat until she got home. She would stay with him the whole time. She was a homemaker. Pets surely have there favorites. I suspect your dog has you as his.
