Mia and I had a lovely morning this Saturday. We got up, ate, used the "bathroom" and then hung out on the couch together for a couple hours. Abe got up and came downstairs and Mia was happy to see him, and then suddenly out of nowhere she went crazy. She went into the kitchen and started madly barking all around at nothing but she was obviously startled or scared or something. Normally if she's barking its because there is another dog outside and she's looking out the window, or she can see someone else around. We tried to figure out if she was barking at her reflection or if she had heard a noise, but she continued to be very upset for another 10 minutes. Maybe there was a mouse? I think if there was a mouse she would have tried to catch it or would have been able to target her anger. Abe looked behind the fridge to see if there was anything there, but of course there was nothing (our fridge is a super tight fit). This obviously means that we have a ghost right? A ghost is potentially messing with my dog and I do not appreciate that.
We were finally able to calm here down and she's happily lounging up against me again. She's actually done this a couple times before - once with me all by myself at 11pm before we went to bed. We were in the bedroom and the door was closed and locked (as I like to do when Abe is away) and she suddenly ran up to the door and started barking at it. Obviously this did not sit well with me, but I'm not stupid enough to go out there and inspect what might have set her off. Instead I just assumed that all was actually fine and she probably just heard a little creaking noise somewhere... and then we went to sleep. It's odd because she really makes the worst guard dog ever. She sleeps through pretty much everything, loud noises don't bother her, and only 5% of strange noises set her off. Ghosts I tell you.
Ok, maybe not ghosts... but what else?
