Jake took the plane ride all the way to Boston with us. We lived in a two family home there and before long he was convinced the footsteps from upstairs were coming to invade his territory. He barked at just about every footstep just as one of the girls was down for a nap. Remember the scene on Marley and Me when Jennifer Aniston puts the baby down for a nap, the garbabge truck beeps, the dog barks, the baby wakes up? Yes, it was just like that. He eventually became very anxious and nervous about every noise he heard whether it was me in the basement, the mail carrier or noise from upstairs. That's when we realized he couldn't stay so he flew all the way to Laredo on my parents return flight after visiting us. We completely intended for him to be away only temporarily so he is home again happy and looking out the window as he likes to do.
