The funniest part is I have to look up to be eye to eye or he will bend over to be eye to eye and will just sit there and wait until the flush sound and then he runs out scared for his life!

There are two bathrooms. What to do?

My dog has to be directly behind my chair when I am either on the computer or sewing, the cat comes and goes except when I have to go to the bathroom! If I close the door, he sits outside and meows and then starts trying to get his paw under the door...he has learned to open bifold doors this way to get into the closets! First it was the kids....now it's the fur babies!

I grew up in a one bathroom, four children farm house. Traffic in there was a given especially since this was when teasing hair was in vogue. So my little doggie in the bathroom "checking" on where I am is a warm reminder of the good ole days and brings a fresh appreciation of having more than "we" need especially in bathROOMs.

LOL..so funny...we used to have a 150 ob choco lab and a 90 lb lab-shephern mix. They followed me around everywhere. Everytime I went to the bathroom, 4 eyes were staring at me. I take a shower and my husband sits on the toilet, lid down, and we have conversations through the shower curtain...Is nothing sacred anymore??? I thought about putting a lock on the door but they'd only yell through the door...lol.. Our previous house had a claw foot and when my son was very young he's come into the bathroom when I was taking a bubble bath and sit on the toilet seat, lid down, and want to talk. Like father....like son.......lol My son is grown, thank God, and no longer comes in the bathroom. Now, if I could only train my husband better, lololol.....

So, I have to scoot Fiona (80#) out of the computer room doorway.
Boots (90#) is laying in the bathroom door because it's as close to the computer room as he can get since his sissy claimed the computer room door.
Well, I wanted a drink first, so I went to the kitchen first. Here come my DD's two dogs from the bedroom (we're doggysitting).
Alllllllllll the way to the kitchen. Make a U turn and all the way back to the bathroom.
Boots is happy, since Fiona got up and he rushed back and claimed her spot while I was still in the bathroom.
The only one who missed the parade was my hubby who sleeps thru these nightly parades. Well, they happen during the day, too.
