[LuvtheCooper]

This just happened and I am still not quite believing it...
A little background... Cooper was 1 year old in November, I have had him since he was 9 weeks old and I am home with him pretty much 24/7, and never leave him alone more than 3/4 hours max. I have once gone out of town and hubby took care of him and even took him to work with him so he wouldn't be alone all day. Cooper was thrilled to see me when I returned. So, we live in Wa state and have a home in Texas, as well, which we go to 3-6 times a year and Cooper flys with us. So, end of Feb. we go to Texas, stay there 3 weeks. My oldest son lives in Texas, so we visit him and his apartment a few times etc., Cooper is very familiar with the place. My husband is thinking about transferring to Indiana and was there working for 12 days while we stayed in Texas. I decide to fly out to Indiana for only 2 days to check it out and leave Cooper and Carley with my son and his girlfriend. They know the drill, not left alone, lots of attention, they understand we treat these dogs as our babies. They do the same. Well, I miss them terribly, again, I am NEVER away from these dogs!! So, I come home and Cooper GROWLS at me, lays down his ears and won't come near me!! I was shocked!!! He did this all night long!!! Thrilled to see husband who had been gone for 12 days!! What the heck? Of course, at the time I was heart broken and cried that he was doing me that way...I am his MOMMY!! He was better the next day and perfectly back to normal now, but I am still astounded that he acted this way!! My husband, trying to console me, said it was because he loved me SO MUCH that he did this! Has this ever happened to anyone else? I have heard/read dog's don't hold grudges or do things from spite, but quite frankly after witnessing this behavior first hand, I don't believe it!! Cooper was definitely MAD at me and was holding it against me!! Anybody with any thoughts or opinions on this?
