Including the bathroom, where he started drinking from the toilet (seriously: where do dogs learn this????) so now I have a post-it note on the way out reminding me to keep the lid down.
But the most fun place to see him is in the living room.
One spot and one spot only, but it's just great to have him in the living room with us when we're watching TV or reading or whatever. It has always been kind of weird to have an "invisible" dog, even though we completely understand that Mojo has a lot to work out for himself.
There are still a few quirks -- what would this dog be without quirks? -- such as not laying in the living room unless one of us is either in the living room or kitchen, and not always coming in when we're in there. Not sure how he weighs out when it's the right time or not, but we're just glad to see him! One of us often will sit next to him on the floor, and he's completely fine with that.
... and if we happen to be snacking on something, all the better: at times like that, Mojo's nose is much less shy than the rest of him!
Beware...I had a foster dog once that could lift the lid and seat to take a drink! It was a female too!! Hopefully Mojo doesn't think of that.
ReplyDeleteAw, geez ... thanks for the heads-up! It has been so long since we've had a young dog that I had forgotten about all these things. It's not like he doesn't have a full water bowl in the kitchen ... he's just going for the shortest distance between two points, I guess. I'll have to keep my eye on this!
