Home Intruder or is it just the Dog?

Our dog, Minnie, has been very confused over the past few weeks on who to go to for her needs. Since spring break and this virus quarantine, T has been her main caretaker and she looks to T, when she wants fed even when I’m home. The last few nights she’s been leaving our room to go wake T to put her out. A few nights ago Minnie woke T and T took her out. Well, hubby and I saw a flash of light downstairs and we both thought intruder. Hubby even got the gun out but checked the girls rooms first to see if it was them. Poor T! I think we scared her more than she scared us.

Last night at 3 am, she didn’t want to freak us out again, so T came into my room to wake me to put Minnie out. In my foggy sleep I had no idea what T wanted. I thought she said she wanted a train whistle! So I panicked, started looking on my bedside for a train whistle. Hubby wakes up and asks what’s going on. I said, “T needs something and I can’t find it.” T tells him that Minnie needs to go out and he gets up to take her out. I’m so confused because I was looking for a train whistle!

T just looks at me and tells me to go back to bed.
