What do you tell your dog...

[PJ's Mom]

...when you leave the house?

Most people don't just walk out the door without saying something to their dog, and I'm wondering what you say to yours.


I always say, "Mommy's going to the store. Stay and be good."

I think they know I don't always go to the store because if I did, I would certainly bring them many more treats and toys than they currently get.

I'm generally late for school because I spend about 5 minutes with each dog, giving them ear rubs and recieving kisses while telling them bye.

I usually say, "Bye Heidi. Love you. I'm going to miss you...yes I am..." and I might do that for awhile too! I am such a wack job...lol A lot of people say you shouldn't make going away and coming back such a big deal because then they can develop Seperation Anxiety, but I know she doesn't, because when I get back she will be happy to see me but then its like no big deal, and she doesn't really mind me leaving her.

I distribute treats throughout the house for Sasha to find so she's busy for the first while when I leave. I tell her I love her and that I will see her later and to be a good girl and do a good job watching the house while I'm gone.

"no, you cant come with me!.. stay back.. I will be back soon sweetie.. I wish you could come to.. byby" lol my girls always try to follow me to school, or wherever when I go out. usually Happy gets to come if its for a walk with my friends, or I am going to the cornor store, then Happy comes, and Misty climbs on top of the wood pile and looks over the fence wondering why I did not take her too lol

I always say I will be right back. I tell her mommy loves her.

[Logan]

"Sorry, babies, you can't go with me this time", or "please be nice while I'm gone", "be patient, and I'll feed you when I get back". Gosh they can make one feel so guilty!!!

I tell them where I'm going, and to behave and take a nap.
Then I sing "You are my Sunshine" to them and tell them "Mommy loves you"

I usually say "you stay mister....I'll be back later....you be a good boy." Then I say "Be good boys...take care of eachother" (for both my dog and 2 cats). Then when I go to my car, I look up to the second floor (my apartment is on the second floor) and he is on the couch looking at me through a pane in the window. He looks like he is saying "hey, where are you going?" and "you forgot me". He looks soooooo sad. I always wave goodbye.

I always say " okay moms gotta go now, i love you sooo much see u in a little bit, be good "
Then i smother them in kisses

[molucass]

I always go turn the radio on in my room, give them all a kiss, tell them "I love you kids! I'll be back soon and im sorry you can't go.," and then I put them in their crates.

Molly stays downstairs and she usually follows me to the door..She tries to bolt out the door as soon as its opened so I say "Get back, Molly! You can't go.. Sorry little girl.. Love ya!" or something along those lines.

[Aspen and Misty]

I normally say bye to the Breeze and Connor when I put them in the Kennel. I just say "See ya later."

I always say to Nova (who gets free roam) "Be Good Nova"

[snappy]

I always say, "Bye boys - Mommy's got to go to work (or where ever it is I am going). Be good and take naps. Mommy loves you and would rather be home with you."

Or something like that..... pretty silly isn't!

[PJ's Mom]

Nah it's not silly at all. What's silly is that we all refer to oursleves in 3rd person. LOL
