I'm glad you were able to arrange for the table. That will be very useful and protective. I also agree with everyone who says Harry will likely know what's up and go easy on your husband. We had a recent experience in which my boys amazed me how intuitive they were, and how accepting they were, and how they behaved in such a helpful way. Dogs are so smart.  |
All dogs are pretty intuitive and sense what is going on but some just lose it at times or like any critter, make a mistake. My sister had emergency esophageal surgery, a post-op infection and was IH a month or so, came home with tubes, etc., and her poodle and Yorkie excited but sensed there were issues there, approached gently, after the initial wild greeting and excitement. All went well for a week until Magnum, the little Yorkie, one day just landed right in her middle as she slept in the bed, trying to kiss her madly, as if he'd restrained himself all that he could, she said. She said she couldn't begin to describe the pain and she had to keep the bedroom door closed after that as she feared he might go commando again. My sweet Scotty jumped on me after my surgery and he was so well-behaved otherwise - wouldn't hurt mommie for anything but he just forgot or went wild that once.
