Buster's Evil Twin

Buster on Behavior - Sat, July 26 2008

I am the world's best boy. I never, never bark unless someone is coming to the door and then I shut up right away when Mama says it is ok.
That was the old Buster!
Gradually, my evil Twin Within, Bruiser, has been coming out. It started about a month ago, with barking in the afternoon about 4 PM for playtime. If Mama couldn't stop and play, the evil one started barking.
Now last night, the worst!! That can't have been me barking for 30 minutes after Mama put me in the crate for bedtime?!
I haven't done that since my first night in my forever home, just about a year ago. What is happening to me, and how can I stop it? Indy Paws Friends please help me. I don't want to interrupt Mama's beauty sleep. She needs it!

My mama's looks have gone down hill since I came along. Same thing about needing "beauty sleep".. I'm absolutely stunning and I get up at 7:30am ready to play! What's whith these humans?

I bark like that sometimes. Mom calls it my bossy bark. When I use it, everyone's supposed to ignore me - like completely. No talking, no looking, and sometimes they even get up and leave me. I don't like being ignored. I just WANT something really badly. Mom says that barking is an "in appro priate" (what ever that is) way to ask for anything.
