Wow! Very Interesting!!!!! Hootie has been acting perfectly fine since I got home from work. My hubby said she was shaking when I went to pick up lunch, but since I came home after that and even left for work, and came back home, she's been fine. I talked to my hubby about it and we both think that she is just going through the phase where she is scared of abandonment. Now that we think about it, we think Hobbs went through that phase when he was 5-6 months of age. Hopefully this is just something that will pass very soon. I really really really appreciate everyone's responses. They have ALL been extremely helpful. Man, this is what I love about YorkieTalk!
