Your Corgi acts typically.
He adores your mother and he is concerned when she is absent - especially for long periods because he uses his herding and pack traits. He want your mother back among his crew (pack) and he is not happy until he knows she is safe. He feels responsible.
Your mother perhaps treats your Corgi better from his point of view. My Corgi loves all his family though my daughter ignores him completely and only has harsh words to say to him (like "get out of my way") and my wife has only ever picked him up once - and that was over 4 years ago - and never had him on her lap. He waits for their return home and he anxiously wants to sleep in my daughter's room.
As far as toileting goes - Taylor's usual routine is to poop twice during his morning walk and that's it for the day. Corgis will sometimes not poop when they feel stressed (eg worried, concerned, hurried).
