I know exactly how you feel. I went through the same thing when I had surgery back in December. I was sick for a couple months before I had surgery, then I had a rough recovery. Jake wants to play ALL the time! Fortunately, he does know how to play good by himself, and I think that has to do with him being an only pup. But, there were times when he wanted me to play, and I barely could.....although I did it anyway lol
One thing that really keeps him occupied for long periods of time are bully sticks and flossies. Jake is a big cuddler, so I could usually get him to settle down and lay with me. He was happy with that, as long as he was near me. Maybe Layla just wants to be close to you because she senses you're sick.
I hope you feel better soon! Best of luck with your surgery! |
