My corgi has extreme emotional attachment to my mother, it's somewhat understandable since she takes care of him most of the time. When she's not home during the day he usually just lays by the front door waiting for her...unless he's ready for dinner. After I take him outside in the morning to do his business, sometimes he'll do "the circuit" where he runs all around the house, or do the thing where he lays on his back and rolls around on the carpet, but most of the time he just lays around waiting for mommy to come home even though that can be days.
The problem is when she's out of town, it seems like he doesn't have to go potty as often as when she's home. I try to walk him in the morning but he puts on the brakes and does not want to go very far. Yesterday he did one big one when I got him up around 8...another big one around 10ish, and a small one in the afternoon but today as well as monday he only did one big one in the morning when he got up.
And if she's home, he won't go outside with anybody else, which can be annoying for her if she's doing something. He'll come if you drag him but i don't want to choke him.
We joke that he "holds it" for her but it seems kind of weird. Do all doggies have "preferred walkers" or is he just a weirdo?
