Dogs and the Joy of Living

by Rebecca Bynum (December 2012)

Her bonding with me could best be described as over-bonding. For months, if a door should come between us, even by such daily necessities as taking out the trash, she would cry and howl her little lungs out until we were reunited, at which time she would jump around excitedly, whining and hyperventilating until reassured. She still follows me through the house like a shadow and sleeps quietly at my feet while I work at the computer.
