This week has been one of those weeks where we had to let the kennels take Butch.
Landon has been on the road all week, and I have been in Minnesota working.
So that means that Butch had no one to care for him. So he got to go to his not favorite place.
Landon dropped him off there on Tuesday, and I picked him up on Friday. Just 4 days you say. That is not a big deal.
To Butch it is almost the end of the world. I am not sure what happens at the kennels, but this is Butch’s behavior after I pick him up. (everytime)
First thing in the car on the way home, he runs around jumping into the back seat, back into the front, onto my lap, back to the other front seat, into the back all the while getting so excited that he is going home that he starts to pant. Amid his panting, he is making little whining noises.
Once we get home, I let him out of the car while I unpack all of his stuff that we have to take to the kennels, as well as all my luggage, and ect. While I am doing this, he is happily peeing on every bush he can find.
Once I get the car unloaded and get him in the house, he runs as fast as he can to his dishes. where he will drink until it almost makes him puke, then whines to go outside again. (Where does all the pee come from?) Where he pees on the new trees we planted outside.
I get him to come in the house, and he runs to his dishes again this time to start hogging down his food.
Then for a while he seems back to normal again. Until it is time to go to bed. He happily goes outside, then comes and jumps on the bed to go to sleep. It is about 10 - 10:30. At midnight he cries to go outside. I get up let him out, he once again goes to his food bowl after he gets back in the house and starts hogging again.
Fast forward to 2:30am. Cries to go outside again. Same scenario as above.
Text Landon saying his dog is crazy.
Hour later Landon calls. Not so sure what he said, because I was mostly asleep.
Fast forward to 5:30am. Butch cries to go out again. Let him out. hogs food. Back to bed.

Then onto 7am Butch is now just bored I am sure of it. But I let him out anyway and he once again does his business.
Did he ever go to the bathroom at the Kennels? Or did he hold it all in until he could come and let it out on his own turf? If not, I am really not sure where it all came from.
At this point I just get up. Now that I have gotten up, and spent hours playing with him, he has not had anymore sudden urges. They only come when I am asleep I guess!
keep in mind, he is four pounds. Can you see how much food he has eaten? That is almost his weight in food...
