I agree, I think Bs are the smartest dogs out there. They just know so much, and can figure things out, and are always a step ahead of their slaves, unless you are moving fast. haha!! My B, Sahara, is a morning girl, she gets up when I do, she follows me around (6:30) when I have to work, and lays down wherever I am, in the kitchen when I get the coffee on, then on the bed in guest room where my small bathroom is that I claim as my personal bathroom for getting ready to go out. She will stay and go back to sleep until I move, if I move, she moves. While I get her food ready she will go to her doggie door poke her head out and look around to see what is happening in her neck of the woods. I need to get a picture of that to post, it is so funny, all you see is that curly tail on the inside. She goes outside eventually to potty and its back to see if Mom is leaving. When I am ready I say, "Sahara Mommy is going to work". She follows me to the car, tries to pull on my sleeve to stay, (working on stopping this behavior, getting better). She makes a B run around the house, stops at my car and I say, I'll be back baby girl". She watches me leave and that's it until I get home, sometimes if it is raining she will quickly go back in to see Daddy. I can say, "Go see Daddy", and she will go back in the house. She is the smartest thing, I work only part-time, on days I am home we sleep until 9. She always seems to know when it is a work day even thou I work different days each week.
