WESTIE COLD SHOULDER
Dear Dog Lady,
My Westie is very affectionate with everyone but me. He will kiss and lick my husband, children, but will only give me a little peck. I am the Alpha in the house. He follows me everywhere, I feed him, walk him, cuddle him, brush him. But he kisses everyone more than me. If I get up in his face for a smooch, he turns his head, I might get a little one, but not with the energy he gives the kids and my husband. What gives?

Dear Dog Lady,
I’m into Comcast, the cable company, for big bucks in chewed-up clicker costs. My Lab Molly chows down on the remote control devices around the house. I try to tell my kids to hide them from the dog, but if any clicker is at Labrador retriever eye level, Molly will find it and gnaw on it. Comcast charges me $30 to replace the mangled remotes. I also worry about any harm to Molly from ingesting bits of the electronic devices. Why does my dog this? How can I make her stop?

Ask Dog Lady
By Monica Collins
Dear Dog Lady,
I got divorced a couple of years ago. My two kids are off living their own lives. I’m home with the dog, which is fine because I love my dog, Scruffy. He’s a great companion. But even you would agree that dogs are no substitute. I can’t imagine that I’ll never be in love again.
