In a previous thread, we discussed cute/funny things THEY do...and we've also discussed how attached our yorkies are to us vs. our significant others. But what about "funny/cute things WE do?"

Tonight, I realized just how bad my "separation anxiety" is when I have to leave Sully....even to shower!

Lately, when I shower, I just KNOW that Sully will whine outside the door (even if my hubby is home). So...knowing this, I take his pillow bed into the bathroom with me, and he curls up in the corner. He's content, knowing I'm right behind the shower curtain. We've been doing this routine for months now.

Well...tonight, when I stepped out of the shower, Sully got up from his pillow, walked over to me (I'm dripping wet standing on the bathmat) and Sully started licking the water off of my ankle. He was trying to help dry me off! I wasn't sure to laugh, cry or both. It was a very cute/funny moment!!!

How bad is YOUR separation anxiety? What kind of funny/silly things do you do to be with them all the time?
