Monday Musings ~ November 9, 2026

Another weekend is in the books so that means we need to start out the week with a fresh smile. We hope yours was terrific.

One characteristic that all Old English Sheepdog owners are keenly aware of is the fact that when you adopt an OES…privacy, especially in the bathroom is not a pleasure you will likely enjoy. This breed is notorious for following you into the bathroom. It’s as if they think you need an attendant to observe your actions. I’m used to it now but whenever the weather begins to transition to cooler temps, a cold wet beard on one’s bare thighs can be quite the wake up call.

Wilson - bathroom

There he is guarding the loo, just waiting for bare skin. I had hoped to deflect his attention long enough to brush my teeth. Alas, he is not easily dissuaded.

We hope you are dissuaded into having a fantabulous day. Happy Monday!

Live, love, bark! 🐾

  1. I didn’t have the cold wet face on bare thighs, but Darwin happy place used to be wrapped around the back of the toilet. It was a little unsettling to have him right there first thing in the morning.

  2. Our Angel Little Bit did this same thing. Our kitties follow us too. There is not privacy, but we’re okay with that. Thanks for the laughs.

    I linked this post to my Awww Mondays blog hop.

    Have a fabulous day and week. Love and hugs to you and lots of scritches to handsome Wilson. ♥

Feel free to bark your thoughts...but please no growling.
