I am watching a dog and I noticed this dog is being much more gentle then she would normally be.

Yesterday I threw up only once. I had showered. I don’t think I was running much of a fever. But this large breed dog reigned in her normal gregarious self and stayed by me loyally.

Typically when I visit her she is jumping up and ready tug my arm off during games of tug of war. She is generally well behaved but will wait until the second command or after you stand there waiting for her compliance for a minute to do so.

I was especially astonished when she instantly obeyed every command even when she was outside which is generally more of a will power struggle.

More then that she baby sat me, stayed by my side to…. I don’t know what her reasoning was but she did and most of the time it was really sweet.

What did she pick up on? I am certain it isn’t my imagination. So how did she know I wasn’t feeling well and that I needed her to be nice. Why did she comply?
