[QUOTE=York-a-lator;1982052]Gosh, thanks.
I appreciate your comments.
I worry about Scooter. Is she happy? Does she like us? Is she lonely for the home/people who had her for her first year? Am I obsessing? LOL!
When we got her we had another Yorkie, Roxy, who was happy, active and outgoing. Scooter liked her. I could tell she was happy. But Roxy was stung by a bee and died from the toxins. We did everything we could to save her. We got Jilly to keep Scooter company and help her over the loss. She
NEVER took to Jilly and sometimes I wonder if she misses Rox.
I guess I'm just used to dogs who acted as though they love us, although she did act concerned about Jilly when I brought her home after she was spayed. The only time I can remember Scooter being concerned about me was when I was moaning about a horrible painful cramp in my leg and foot. She climbed up on the sofa and started kissing me. My husband chased her down and I wish he hadn't done that. I guess that should tell me something.
I cuddle both of them as much as I can. Scooter doesn't really like it. Sometimes my husband puts her up on the bed at night because she's asked. When I come to bed, she's in my spot. If I move her, she just stands there. I pet her, rub her tummy and try to get her to relax and cuddle, but she eventually wants to get down and heads for her bed in the bathroom. Jilly stays on the bed all night, and snuggles with me.
I guess I should stop worrying and just enjoy them for who they are, huh? QUOTE][/
I think that's excellent advice!
