She is such his dog, it’s ridiculous. She clearly likes me and all, of course. But she loves him, is obsessed with him. When he opens the door for her to let her out of her room, she jumps for joy at him and rubs up against him and all. When I get home first and go let her out of her room, she barely acknowledges my presence, and sprints to the back door to go outside and look for him. She genuinely stands there, staring at the space where his car belongs, unsure of what to do, now that she sees he isn’t home yet. And when he isn’t home at bedtime, like tonight, and I go to bed, I am super nice and invite her into the bedroom with me and pet her and all, and go to bed. Within ten minutes, though, she is inevitably up and trying to get out of the room, presumably to go wait for him to come home. It’s ridiculous.
She so obsessed with him, though I guess it takes off the pressure of my being so obsessed with him, and makes me seem less weird to him… maybe… haha 😛

Not sure what kind of dog you have but as I was petting mine, I thought of your post. Maybe your dog is familiar with the pattern of you coming home first and gets excited to see his dad knowing his whole family will be complete soon haha. Kind of a dorky thought but herding dogs love knowing all their people are together and in sight. My dog literally waits for me to get home from work to poop at night, can you believe it? Such funny creatures.
