i'm dog+house sitting since auntie P went for her holiday.
this is her dog - Frodo - it's small-sized and has separation anxiety. it basically follows you around the house and it scratches people/doors to get its way.
last night was the first time i'm alone with it at night. i wanted it to sleep outside so i closed the bedroom door. the other time auntie P left the house before me, i found the dog on my bed when i woke up. she said the dog might cry if it wasn't let into the same room.
little did i know that it would be scratching at my door every 5 minutes. and it was desperate, making the door thump like crazy. it was scary to hear its efforts in the dark quiet of the night. i ignored it for 20 minutes, my head spinning with guilt but also determined to not give in.
but when i knew that it would not stop, i gave up, let it in and put its sleeping mat on my floor.
Frodo was a noisy sleeper - the licking, snorting, shaking, rolling, dragging noises kept me up.
this morning, it greeted me with a wagging tail, and is sleeping in front of the tv as i type.
sigh. this dog wants for very little except to have a human within its sight.
