If Lee leaves the room, RJ follows. If Lee takes a shower and leaves the bathroom door open the dog waits on the bath mat. If Lee goes outside the dog follows. He follows the tractor when scraping snow or bush hogging in the hottest weather.
Sometimes Lee looks at me and jokingly whines, "He's following me."
We don't take him in the truck often, because he thinks he should sit in the passenger seat and so do I. I win that argument. He got car sick in the back seat once, so he mostly gets to stay home.
If we both leave, he sits by one of the windows that almost allows him to see down the driveway. We got a camera and monitor so WE can now see approaching cars, but RJ hasn't figured out how to look at that.
So he presses his face against the window in the office.
Or the one in the bonus room. And waits.
And waits.
I am obviously here for companionship. I am taking the pictures, after all. But I, who rescued him from the shelter, am obviously not good enough. It is Lee he waits for.
How do we know this? Because he leaves dog nose spots on the windows.
It's kind of sweet. And kind of sad. Most mostly disgusting. Time for the Windex.
My windows and French doors look all slimy like that too. Our pups come to David to go outside to play and they come to me when hungry or needing comfort. They know who does each task the best. LOL So does RJ. xox
ReplyDeleteGuess RJ is proving that a dog is man's best friend.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know all about those nose spots!
ReplyDeleteoh yes! Funny though our Bernese never left nose spots.... none of them over the years! But Atta with her long German Shepherd nose makes a total mess of the glass doors every day!
