Do you sometimes take him places during the day? He could be hoping he gets to go some where. Or if he knows this is a signal that you may be leaving him during the day it could be that is getting him upset. Maybe he's pretty sure you are staying put at night time.
Gracie picks up signals, too. She pretty much knows ahead of time if she is going with me when I leave or if she is staying home. I think it has something to do with what I wear and which purse I pick up, if any. She knows if I pick up the purse with keys that dangle off it that she is not going and lays down with her head on her paws and puts the pouting puppy face on. |
