Part of the reason for this is that she does some pretty unusual things, like moving the furniture around when we're not watching....or sometimes even when we are. Then there's the fact that she seems to just 'know' stuff, like when it's 9:00 p.m. and time for her nightly cookie.....I mean, how does a golden retriever--without a watch, of course--know the time almost to the minute?
When we first got Emma--aka Boo, because she's so full of surprises--she just wanted to return to the mother-ship. She escaped from the fenced backyard FOUR times, each of them unique. Holly, our other golden, was the one who came to the door and let us know that Houdini had done it again. Finally, an animal communicator had a conversation with her and explained that she needed to stop taking off....and it stopped.
She is completely addicted to affection. Along with food, being scratched, petted and stroked is about all that she wants in life. Although she really gets in my face if the morning walk is late, or not happening for some reason....like the rain we're having this morning.
I have always believed--with good reason--that dogs are wise, and that they know stuff we cannot. I don't know if this means they're 'psychic', or if they are just really, REALLY sensitive and therefore tuned-in so well that they can tell when something will happen before it does. But, most assuredly they can. I have seen way too many instances of this to doubt it.
But, all of this being what it may....I was shocked when I photographed Boo up on a rock in the woods, with her sister, Binky, and saw this:
BTW: all photos in this blog are 'clikable' and you can see them at full size.
