We have a strange dog...

Actually, we have two strange dogs, but Snowy has taken to doing a very weird thing lately. She has always needed to know where we are in the house. If we're in another room with the door even partially shut, she barges in, just to make sure we're in there and then turns around and goes back to whatever she was doing, usually sleeping.

In the new house, we have a shower with clear glass doors. In the old house, it was a tub with mirrored doors (the mirrors were on the outside, for all the dirty thinkers out there). So, Snostorm has taken to coming in the bathroom and standing outside the shower while we shower. I don't think she's quite got it figured out what goes in there. She knows there's water, but she can see now whoever happens to be showering, and she seems quite baffled by this development. I always imagine the little thoughts in her doggie mind go something like this. "Is she in the glass box again? Why?" Or "There goes Mom again getting in the glass box. She stands in there for a few minutes and then comes out. What's the point of that?"

She just has this quizzical look on her face when she stands there, ears cocked forward, head tilted, like, "What is going on here?" It totally cracks me up.
