I just turned three and have lived with my family since I was a baby...and I too must know where my mom is at All times. I sit outside of the bathroom door...I would sit on her lap if I wasn't 60 pounds! Some people call us weimeraners 'velcro dogs' because we have to be with our family at all times. My mom doesn't mind either...I think it secretly makes her feel good! :)
Hey Hewie, Your not the only one who feels like you have to follow your mom everywhere. I'm so bad about it I go and sit in the bathroom with her and most of the time I try to give her hugs when she is trying to use the bathroom. I'm weird I know. I have to constantly know where my mom is at all times. I need to know where dad is too but it's my mom I'm stuck to. Dad says I'm spoiled, mom says I'm just loved so much I end up getting my way most of the time. All I have to do is look at her with my big brown eyes and she caves in. It's great!!!!
I'm not sure why I have to be with my mommy 24/7 either, she thinks it's cuz of love and she's probably right :)
I cry if she shuts the door on me, I have to lay outside the tub when she takes her shower or bath, cuz you never know when the bogeyman might show up, I have to be on guard all the time. I love to join her in the water if I'm invited! What??? Dogs aren't supposed to like baths?? Am I a dog??? I make room for myself in the bed, on the couch, I even have tried to fit in the Lazyboy recliner w/her. I thought there was plenty of room, but she made me get down. I think I'm only just a widdle baby puppy and I can still fit on her lap. Oh well, enough for now, I have to go check all the doors and windows, later!
Since I was adopted from Animal Control 8 years ago, I very rarely lose sight of my mom. The first time she went in the shower and I could not see her I lost it. I stare at her all the time, and when she gets home I must lay on her lap to be extra reassured that she is home. I also check on her sometimes when she's taking a bath and I dont hear anything for a while.
All this after 8 years. I'm just protecting my rescuer.
