My younger girl is clean as a clean thing but she never asks to go out. She will stand by the back door but never whimpers or anything. Sometimes I get that feeling of being watched, turn round from the PC and she's standing there, staring at my back, willing me to let her out


ETA the exception, like Jackson says, is during the night. She will bark to get me downstairs to let her out. The other night she woke me up at 3am, when I'd been throwing my guts up (bad Chinese), and I was convinced she wanted a wee but she scooted straight to the corner of the kitchen..... to chase and eat the smallest spider I've ever known her take an interest in. It had obviously been taunting her for some time and she couldn't wait until morning.... hearing her crunch it up did nothing for my nausea, let me tell you.
