This dog.

Question for other people who live with dogs: Do any of you who have yards have dogs that prefer to spend time in the yard after dark rather than during the day? During the day, Dudley will be yapping at the back door to come back in 30 seconds after I let him out, but, once the sun goes down, he wants to spend an hour running around in the dark, lol. Every once in awhile, he'll enjoy a longer lie in the sunshine during the day, but he always prefers nighttime, irrespective of the time of year. Silly pooch.

Zelda, naturally, does whatever Dudley wants. And if she needs to go out during the day when he's too lazy to get up, she'll stay out there until I come and get her, often either just lying contentedly in the sunshine, or standing patiently and quietly at the backdoor. "Whatever you want! I'm cool! It's a day!"
