Hey all,
So this morning we dropped off our Boxer (Sox) at the vet to be sedated to get his nails dremmeled. I had to work but my husband was home most of the day. Apparently Daphne lost her mind without her brother because she peed all over her bed in the crate and she hasn't done that since the first week we brought her home (just about a year ago). My husband went out just for a bit and when he got home he discovered the pee and said she was running all around the house trying to find her big bro all afternoon.

I find this interesting because they really don't spend a bunch of time together. I've had dogs in the past that were inseparable. I've had dogs that loved each other so much that when the companion passed, the other dropped a bunch of weight and went into a deep depression. Daphne really appears to not give a flying crap about Sox unless he has something she wants.

My husband told me that he was afraid to put Daphne back in the crate when he had to go pick up Sox at the vet, so he brought Daph with him and he said it was ridiculous - when they both saw each other they lit up and wagged their little nubs and ran to each other. Wish I was there to see it.

We brought Daphne home last year the first week of February, and I guess they really do love each other even though they don't act like it. She has spent the better part of the last hour grooming Sox, licking his ears and paws and face.
 
Not unusual at all... they have their own language that we can not see or understand. Even though they do not interact doesn’t mean there isn’t a connection to each other.

You got a look at what will happen should one pass... a lot of time you don’t know it till the depression shows up. Happened with Cheli when Banks passed

I definitely think Louie likes Jax more than Jax likes Louie. I swear Jax pretends he’s too cool to show he likes Louie lol. Louie loves to cuddle up with Jax when they’re sleeping and lay his head on him and sometimes Jax looks at him like wtf and will move. But the other night I woke up and saw Jax resting his head on Louie but he got caught and immediately moved lol. He’s such a jerk.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder...:yes:

I guess so. My big boy has been a wreck as we've been packing up the house for the last week. Loose stool and throwing up from time to time. He always does this when we get ready to relocate. Poor guy. Daphne is just rolling with it. Couldn't care less, but I find it interesting that she is being extra nurturing to him. I catch her grooming him and laying next to him more often now.

Good luck with your move.
One good thing about moving is when you're finally unpacked!! :)

She's a good little sister. Good luck with your move.

This is a cute thread; funny comments. Dogs are hilarious when they are jerks. I love Froxer's story about How Daphne and Sox were when they were reunited and afterwards. Makes your heart swell.

Moving blows; good luck with it!
