[QUOTE="donna723, post: 458258, member: 1883"] I just love reading everyone's dog stories! They're such amazing little critters. And Lisa, I would trust Molly's instincts ... dogs usually right on and are much better judges of character than people are. If there is ever anyone that my dogs take an instant dislike to, I listen to them and they're always right! My son used to have a huge loveable yellow mutt ... the only person he ever bit was my ex! They sometimes have an almost psychic connection with their owners. My daughter and sister in law have two large dogs, Crash (a male lab mix) and Sasha (an Australian shepherd mix). When Allison became pregnant, Sasha seemed to know it almost before she did! She had always been equally attached to both Allison and Matt but once she was pregnant, Sasha never left Allisons side. She had to sit right next to her on the sofa and when Allison got up, Sasha got up and followed her where ever she went, even to the bathroom and she became very protective of her! Once Ethan was born, she was fascinated with him, just reverent in her treatment of him. She was very protective of him and wouldn't let a stranger near him until they told her it was OK. When he was a newborn, he'd wake from a nap and when they'd bring him out to the living room she'd have to check him out to make sure he was OK, then she was allowed to kiss him on his ear. When he was sleeping, she'd tiptoe into his room to check on him all the time, peeking in to his crib. You could hear her toenails on the wood floor over the baby monitor. My Katy has her rituals too. She sleeps in her crate at night, and just like a kid, she likes to have a little notice before bedtime. She's a bit chubby and has to have a little midnight snack and a drink to tide her over before she goes to bed. I'll tell her that it's almost bedtime - she runs right to the food bowl and eats a few mouthfuls of food, then in to the kitchen to get a drink. Then she climbs up in my lap for her hugs and snuggles and then she's ready for bed. We do this [I]every[/I] night! [/QUOTE]
