My mom comes over every weekday to watch Ari. She arrives at the same time every morning.
And every morning, Rigby comes down barking her head off, sees who it is, and continues to bark for ten minutes or so. She likes my mom, recognizes my mom, and is used to this routine (it's been almost three years.)
Why does she have to bark once she realizes who it is and that there's no threat? Sometimes she does this to me when I come home from work. I don't get it.
Dog whisperers, please explain. I wouldn't care, except that she wakes Ari up so many mornings and when I have a new baby in the house, I would love it if she didn't get woken up by a crazy dog, too.
