Those that have multiple dogs, does your yorkie prefer to play with them that you? Unfortunately, Trevor has to stay at home alone several days a week while I work. Of course when I get home, he's screaming his head off for me to pick him up and hold him.

After about 5 minutes of cuddling and potty time, he's forgotten all about me and wants to play with my rat terrier. She's a great babysitter and loves to play with him. So while I'm doing the domestic chores, cooking, cleaning up, etc., Bunny keeps Trevor occupied, even if they're in the kitchen with me. But after dinner, I want to play with Trevor and spend time with him, but he's more intereted in Bunny. He's even decided that he wants to sleep curled up to her in our bed than by me.

So I've been a little hurt feeling he loves his doggy sister better than me! Am I being silly?
