Time4ANap Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) With the recent loss of Diva, we have been making sure that Mark gets lots of attention and activities to keep him from being anxious or bored without her. So far he is doing great, enjoying walks and starting to get vocal when he wants or needs something. He always let Diva take the lead, and he was content to lay in a bed most of the time relaxing. Chris is out of town this week, so I figured it''s a good time to leave him alone in the house off and on to see how he does on his own. He and Diva were together every day since 2015, so being alone in the house is something new for him. I have been leaving for short periods of time, gradually increasing the time, and watching or checking in on him on the Broodie Cam in the living room. So far, he has been perfectly content when alone. Yesterday I left the house a number of times to get him used being alone and everything went great. Last night I was walking through the living room when I noticed this. Someone has been trying out the furniture! I don't know when he did that or what he was trying to do, but there are two distinct paw prints pressed into the seat cushion. My sweet, quiet boy who has never shown any interest in the furniture, might be a little sneaky... Edited December 23, 2021 by Time4ANap Quote Camp Broodie.

MerseyGrey Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I wonder if he will be like Buddy, who got on the sofa when nanny and gramps were dog sitting once…but once up there realised that he preferred solid ground.
