yes and yes - mine cry when I take a shower too - but that is my fault because I do not leave them alone enough. I am going to try really hard to be better with the baby than I did with Abbey. But I was so afraid to leave Abbey and come home and find her hurt or gone as I just lost Sami. So I made her neurotic and now I am slowly breaking her. It is not her fault at all. But I also could not help myself at the time. I did what I had to do and now we will work together to make it better. Maggie is already so attached to me and now is the time that I will start leaving her to run to the store so she learns that she will be safe and that mommy will be home soon. Then when she gets bigger I will leave them together and before long it will all be great. But its going to take time and I am not going to rush it and scare them. It is also difficult because I have days when my neuropathy is so bad that I can barely stand so I can not leave, plus I have to take medications and can not drive on them so I can only do the best I can. I hear it over and over again - you need to leave your dogs more.... and it goes in one ear and out the other. The truth is when I am away from them I am miserable and so are they. But I will work slowly so that they can learn that it is okay to be alone at times. Nancy and the girls
