You guys are gonna think that I am crazy and I hate to admit this to everyone. But.....when Mom is in the bedroom or bathroom and she wants me to keep her in the bedroom this is what she puts across the door. Yes...its about 14 inches tall and I stay in the room and don't even try to jump it. I stay in the room.
Here is the crazy part. I stay in the basement when she is gone and I have about a 4ft by 6ft spot that is 2 sides wall, 1 side back of the couch and 1 side gate. I manage to get out of there and she has NO idea how. She says that I am a little Houdini!!
She has me pretty well secured for the moment in the basement with tables in front of the gate and I havent been able to get out but its not for the lack of trying!!
**I get too much anxiety if I'm left with too much space so I cant be left alone in the house or even in the kitchen. I kinda go berserk!! Crazy huh?? A small space makes me feel safe I guess. She thought that I would grow out of this by now, its been 2 years but nope...Haven't!!
Any one else have anxiety issues? Does it ever go away?

ReplyDeleteOh Oreo, you jus' wanne be near her, ain't it so?! The pillows work cuz you can see and sniff and hear her on the other side of that bathroom door!!! If mum left a baby monitor down stairs, or a recording of her working in the kitchen or somesuch, would that help??? Go snuggle and ask her... hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
sometimes a small space is comforting - like having your own kennel
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the great Houdini! As you know Hailey has anxiety, but it isn't related to space. Hope your mom finds a solution for you soon and that you learn to jump the pillow!
ReplyDeleteI get it. When you're staying in the bedroom, you're staying WITH your momma, so you just need a little reminder. But when you're locked off all alone, you escape no matter what!!
ReplyDeleteI'm crated at night and when my peeps go away, and sometimes I whimper when they leave!
ReplyDeleteTell me how to get out of this cage!
ReplyDeleteBailey & Hazel have limited area and I go in my crate when mom & dad are not home

Get a large crate silly. Mom can decorate it with pretty materials

When Mom is gone and it's dark or stormy I go in the little narrow closet and lay on a bed she keeps there for me. I feel safe there.

We think you just like staying in the bedroom, we aren't anxious dogs...
ReplyDeleteOreo...bless your little pea pickin' heart. Mom says having met you in the furs she thinks you are a very smart pup. We think it is okey dokey fine that you do what makes you feel comfy. After all there were several years when you lived somewhere else and we don't know the details of your beginning so holler it loud and proud I am Oreo and I march to the beat of my own drum!!
