Thanks! Yep! Toto is an absolute joy!
When she used to get those awful "pancakes" she would have the saddest look on her little face and would kinda back up to one of us for help! After we finally realized what she was doing, we could sorta read her expression and usually were right. Poor baby ... she hated it as badly as we did!
Since we have been following Dr. Lucy's advice and putting the little ponytails up, we hardly ever have anything "hang on"! She
is funny about her little schedule! She wants her naps the same time every day and gets grumpy if her schedule gets interrupted. She also goes into play mode every day about the same time! The oddest thing is how she just "knows" about 30 minutes to an hour before time for Patrick to get home from the office! She lies on the rug near the front door with her little chin on her paws and patiently waits. She can hear his key when he puts it in the courtyard door and jumps up and peeks through a little gap I left for her at the bottom of the sheer on the front doors ... when she sees him she starts a little "dance" that she does and gets so excited! She waits for him to pull off his shoes and sit in his recliner where she promptly lies on his chest. She allows him enough time to rest a little ... lets the two of us catch up on our day ... then she "demands" play time and undivided attention from him until after we all have dinner! She spends the rest of the evening going from Patrick's lap to mine and about 10 PM she wants to go to bed for the night! She is without a doubt the most intelligent little brat we have ever seen!! She's a "keeper"!!
