It didn’t happen all at once. First the kitchen. Then the hallway. Then I caught her quietly padding behind me into the bedroom. She didn’t ask for anything. No whining. No jumping. Just… presence. I sat on the floor, waiting to see what she’d do. She sat too. A few feet away. Watching me like always. But she stayed. And when I got up, she followed again. Not for food. Not for treats. Maybe just to be close. And somehow that meant everything. #Pets #Dogs #QuietCompanionship
