I saw my dog do something she's never done and I don't know how to feel about it.
I live alone upstairs in an upstairs apartment building, and since I got my Eski, Lucy (2 yearsf), I taught her to only go up the stairs, and not down (She's carried downstairs to pee and play etc). I did this because I was worried that she could go downstairs without my notice, and terrorize some kids/people (she's a darling and can't hurt a fly, but she can be a bully if she knows you're scared of her). So right from when she was a pup, it'd always been that way. Everytime I come back from an outing (I hardly even lock my doors), she'd be at the patio/verandah of my apartment, at the edge of the stairs, going crazy. Feverish, shaking (she has a bit of separation anxiety), waiting for me to get to her. It's cute.
Now being the darling she is, she usually gets a lotta guests, and recently it's been a couple of kids in the neighborhood. Sometimes they come on Saturdays when I'm outside working out or watching my friends play soccer. Or on evenings when I take a walk or a go for a quick bite (The last time they came was yesterday).
Now here's what's crazy. Today I was downstairs and coming up the stairs, when I saw Lucy trottling down the stairs, with a big grin on her face. I froze
