Chester the dachshund visiting me in my room in the morning: Human! Human, I am so lonely! I need attention and company! Please, let me lick every bit of skin you have showing and then fall asleep on your feet for an hour!

Chester the dachshund visiting me in my room in the evening: Hey so I heard you have toys around here somewhere, where are they, I need to find them and then run away with them. What? You? Yeah, I guess you can open doors for me or something, that'd be okay.

Yesterday afternoon Chester followed me downstairs, and I couldn't figure out if it was for kisses or toy hunting. Turns out it was a bit of both! After some brief face licking, he tracked down a toy I'd "hidden" in the laundry room; instead of taking it and running immediately and triumphantly upstairs with it the way he usually does, though, he wanted to play tug-of-war with me! I played for a little bit, but ended up coaxing him up the stairs after just a few tugs and chases, since I was getting sleepy 😅

I'm not sure how exactly he's reacting to More Human Time at home; since Mom works for the local community college, he gets a few weeks of it now and then regardless, so I don't know if he's noticed a pattern at all. Still, he does love having humans at home to cuddle and pester for pets and treats 😉
