AngieW in Texas Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 The puppy likes to be very near to me all the time. She's pretty tired now after her second 1.5 mile walk of the day, so she's generally just lying at my feet while I'm at the computer. But then I go into the kitchen to stir the food around and she comes in there to lie at my feet. A few minutes later when I move into the living room to get back on the computer, she moves back in there to lie at my feet. She's following me back and forth from one room to another. I feel guilty every time she gets up. I think it's really cute the way that she likes to follow me around though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denisemomof4 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 that is SO cute. My rat terrier did that all the time. Even in her final days when she was so sick and weak from a failing heart. I also felt guilty. I miss her SO much! Enjoy your shadow! I am so crazy about dogs. I could never live without one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elinor Everywhere Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 My pup does that, and I feel guilty, too. She is so tired, and the poor thing can't sleep if she has to follow me around the house as I do my chores. Mine is a terrier/dachshund/?? mix.....a rescue dog who is now 13 months. I LOVE her, in a completely different way from my old sweet Chocolate Lab, whom we had to put down 2 years ago. This little dog has completely stolen my heart, and while I'm sorry she has to wake up and trail after me, I'm also glad she does. :001_wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Live2Ride Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I have a great dane who does that. I've been trying so hard to get her to learn her stay command, but she always scoots forward to get closer to me as I walk away. It's comical, but exasperating!

Jennifer Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 My little 2 pound, 10 week old puppy does this. I put her in a baby sling and wear her around the house. She sleeps for a couple of hours at a time and as a bonus, doesn't have any potty accidents. My dh thinks I'm nuts, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yesterday and today I made a really poor stab at grooming him and now he's avoiding me like the plague. (And he looks funny to boot!)
