The Dog Whisperer

I am in need of a dog whisperer. Ty has gone plumb loco. He has always had his issues, being an abused dog before he came into our family. But, this? It's getting to be a bit much.

It started a couple of weeks ago. He'd wake me up in the middle of the night wanting out of the house NOW. Of course, once weekend came & Big D was home to take care of him, he wasn't as whacked out. Last week, he seemed much better & by the end of the week, he was fine.

Until last night. We had a HUGE storm which about did him in, but by the time I went to bed, it was over. Big D went to bed about 3am and was just about good & asleep when Ty started acting up again.

What is it that he wants? What's bugging him? Why does he only do this in the wee hours of the morning? Big D let him out around 5:30. Tired of his pacing & panting, he left Ty out there until 7 or so. Ty came in and went fast asleep. When we woke up for the day, he stayed fast asleep.

Big D has let the weeds get bad out there. Is Ty addicted to the weeds? Do we need to stage an intervention? Is the house haunting Ty? He's the only one affected. Cleo is acting normal. Well, normal for HER. Is a natural disaster about to hit us?

I need sleep. I need consecutive sleep. I need my dog to behave. I ♥ my dog, but I can't take much more of this. I need help. Please, dog whisperer, won't you help us?

Maybe it's that little robot bug getting him....

I was thinking about you last night during the storm. I was hoping Ty wouldn't freak out and you could get some much needed rest. Oh well. Maybe he has a girlfriend out there somewhere? Hee!

He's sensing something that you can't, but you pretty much already figured that out (sorry). Poor Ty - if he could just 'tell' you, it would make everyone's life easier! (((hugs))) I hope you get some sleep soon.

Bubba's Sis, that's not a bug robot. That's an idog for Bear's mp3 player. It doesn't sleep with Ty. It was just being posed with him by the little photographer.

Lisa, that's too funny! I thought of a girlfriend as well. Big D was quick to nix it as Ty isn't a 'man' anymore. I still say he's man enough to be enticed!

Thank you, Misty. It's just so strange because it's happening at around the same time. Argh! I'll admit, it's starting to freak me out too.

Stacey, he does have a cuddly face. He thinks he's a lap dog!

Checkin in on Ty....how did last night go? Better I hope!

Btw, have you heard anything on George lately? And Kenny? Is anyone hurt, in jail....leaving town on a bus? I need info, sigh. I guess I'll wait for B/S to update us. It's too hard! xoxoxo

I'll talk to the friendly neighbourhood kangaroo whisperer and ask him if he reckons there is a `fix' here.

Hope Ty is not spooked about something. ....

Stacey, you are such a sweetie to check in on Ty. He slept until 6am which is still quite early for him. But, we did at least have a full night's sleep. As far as the cell phone soap opera, I'm as much in the dark as you are! Such a tease! ;)

David, thank you so much for talking to your local kangaroo whisperer. I'm positive he'll know a 'fix' for Ty. I, too, hope he isn't spooked about something. I don't deal with spook well.

Ty DOES kinda look like a kangaroo....

Maybe Mr. Kangaroo hears a high-pitched sound at that time of morning...just a thought.
