I'm not certain that I'm a fan of my new dog walker (a family friend who is out of work). I might be jealous.
Don't get me wrong, I love my dog walker as a human and a friend. I'm not sure that I'm a fan of him stealing all my Copley lovin'.
My most favorite time of days is the 30 seconds between my getting out of my car and walking to the front door. Every afternoon, when I pull up outside of my house and step out of my car - silence. Then, wait for it...1, 2, 3 seconds and "WOOF". The little "woofs" and pitter patter on the hardwood floor moves from my bedroom to the front door where I'm always met with so much enthusiasm. Copley wiggles and is so excited for my attention.
But, today, after the first day with our new dog walker...I got a "hey ma, nice to see ya. going to take a nap." Then, the familiar sound of a snoring puppy passed out on the kitchen floor! As the evening has gone on, she's migrated to her crate where is snuggled up and snoozing.
I know a dog walker is best for both of us as I experienced quite a bit of anxiety leaving her home all day by herself. But, I'm missing getting chased around with a Frisbee. It's only day one...I guess we'll see how it goes.
I know this sounds totally silly but do you get jealous of your dog walker and feel like your puppy lovin' got all used up?
