Our dog, Gracie, is not your traditional watch dog. Don't get me wrong, she is happy to bark loudly at anyone. Even us, when we get home. But as soon as she sees who it is, she either wags her entire body with happiness or tucks her tail. Our watch dog, likes to watch us. She is watching me right now!
She also loves to watch lizards, birds, squirrel, chipmunks, and her specialty, bunnies. Here she is waiting for the lizard to come back. Hours of Gracie's life are spent watching for lizards. I think Jack taught her this.
Since her main job is watching us, she had mastered this task. If anyone leaves town, or even has an all day activity, you can tell that she is just not happy. She must take attendance constantly. When we are not all present and accounted for, it is time for worry, anxiety, and whining. David is out of town, so Gracie is spending an insane amount of time on her bed looking sad and moaning. Poor Gracie, Daddy will be home soon. That's love baby.
