Attachment i psoted this in training..but i guess it's more relevant here... Hi, I have a 3 month old yorkie/[COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]silky [COLOR=green! important]terrier[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] mix & I absolutely adore her. Sophie is hyper and spoiled and i love her to bits. But since I work 9-5 she lives with my boyfriend who is in another state. I visit a lot usually 3/7 days. But I've started to notice (and expected this to occur) that she's a lot more attentive and attached to him then she is to me. She'll listen to me when I discipline her but she's definitely more affectioante towards him. Pretty soon we're going to be transitioning her to my apartment. Hopefully she's okay with me working 9-5...but my question is..do you think she'll everbe as affectionate towards me as she is towards him? will she ever realize that i'm her mommy? :( it really stresses me out thinking that she sees him as master and not me. |
I think yes, she will :) My mom has had many dogs from given to her from other people. ALL looked up to her as their "master" in the end. I also have a shihtzu, Lulu. She obeys me and my mom the same. She is actually my mom's dog that somehow becomes mine too. Bear in mind I wasn't around for the 1st year of her life. I believe dogs can have a few leaders, no matter what experts say. They have big hearts :) |
Yea, once you actually live with her full time she will come to be just an affectionate with you. They can definatly have more than one master. You both would just have to be on the same page. |
She will definately become more affectionate to you once your living together again!! Just give it some time!! Just make sure that you are the one feeding her...and spend time with her before and after you leave for work..that will help alot! |
