Sam does the same thing, he is always starring at me...thats if he's not sleeping...lol

LOL! AprilLove does exactly this.She always stares at me until I lock eyes with her, then she knows its time to run to the toybox, grab her soccer ball and play catch, and throw, and catch, and throw.
She will also sit and stare at me if I haven't talked to her for a few minutes

I always thought if a human stared at a dog, it is considered a threat to the dog. However, Suzi looks at me all the time, and i always think she is trying to get my attention, or is asking for something? It is very cute.
Sometimes when i have stared at her, she will Jump on me fast, and give me kissess.

Blossom stares at me too; I thought it was because she wants to play.

All three of mine do it. Sometimes three dogs following you every gets a frustrating cause then I have to play hopscotch with them if I have to change directions fast and they don't sense it or realize what is happening. They follow you because they love you and they are always seeking approval by getting petted and treats. As we all know yorkie's LOVE ATTENTION. I also think they can sense your moods. People say dogs don't have real brains or emotions. I say *BS* b/c mine always seem to know what to do if I am upset and they know if I am mad about something or they get excited when I get excited. THey may not talk through language but they use there body language to send us messages. People can think I am crazy if you want, thats just my opinion b/c I am really close to my dogs and I love them like children.

That's really funny because my nine year old Jag does the same thing! It used to really freak me out, but now I would worry if we were hanging out and he didn't stare at me! ha ha He also is my constant shadow! Whether im cleaning house, cooking, getting ready for work... I look down and he is right there. Talk about having a friend that's always by your side.... you really couldnt ask for more!
