Finn had been better

[conuly]

But lately, I don't know. He's been keeping us all up at night with neediness and demands for snuggles and his panic at being in the dark. And his daytime behavior is sliding back into neediness as well. He's always had this separation anxiety, but it was improving until lately.

Ideas? Jenn did just switch bedrooms, could that be the source of this?

We're seeing the vet in two weeks, if there's no improvement in this I'll ask again. It's not just the humans who need sleep. I'm convinced the dogs do too.

Our dogs have a very solid sense of time.  They know about when noon is, and they know about when dinner time is.  But that's in relation to a 24 hour day, in terms of a calendar, I don't know. Recently, our black poodle Charlie has changed locations for napping during the day. Rather than sleeping on the bed with my wife, his vastly preferred human, he's sleeping on top of her clothes next to the dog bed facing out in the doorway.  Russet thinks it's because it's cooler.  He does need a haircut, which I expect she'll be giving him and our other poodle Dante in a couple of weeks.  Me, I'm not so sure.
