A picture says a thousand words.
About 2 weeks ago, our oldest daughter and her family were here to visit. I’ve blogged about the weekend several posts ago. What I hadn’t mentioned is how jealous our dog is. He barely tolerates the cat and now he had to put up with a 12 month old and a 5 year old. He really doesn’t mind following them around to eat whatever food they drop on the floor, but, if we were to hold either of the grandchildren, our dog would pout.
Well, I was putting down our sweet angel for a nap. I rocked her on a pillow so when she fell asleep, all I had to do was put the pillow down and she wouldn’t be disturbed.
After she woke, we were playing in the front room. I realized I hadn’t seen the dog, this is what I found
I guess he wanted me to know that he was my baby and not that sweet little thing that was asleep on the very same pillow a few minutes before. I cannot believe he remained in that position so our daughter could take this picture.

When I saw the photo of your dog I had to start laughing. I had a pomeranian who was also a bit jealous.
Whenever company would come over she’d get upset because they’d sit on the couch - her favorite spot. Subsequently she’d let out a loud growl of disapproval. I’d have to scold her to keep her quiet and she’d sit or lay in such a way that the couldn’t see the guests.
I guess she was pulling her own version of the ostrich with it’s head buried in the sand - out of sight, out of mind.

Frickin weird dog! You never should have gotten rid of Patchy.

Michael, animals are so funny. Both our cat and dog will shun us when they are mad. They sit with their backs to us. When our dog is really frustrated, he sighs. Our cat gives us, what we call flippy tail. When she’s mad at us, the tip of her tail will start flipping, then the her whole tail starts flipping at us.

LOL!
When my pom-pom used to get angry with me she’d start taking dirty clothes out of the hamper and dragging them through the house.

Belle, You are right, we should have kept Patchy. I wish you and/or your brother were in a position to take her.
