Susie and Emma

75% of the time, we worry about Susie and Emma. Our little dog is getting older (she's 9 1/2) and tends to be a little cranky. It doesn't take a whole lot for her to get irritated with Emma over things that are complete accidents and then overreact to simple little things. This usually results in Susie being exiled from the family room until her attitude improves.
But, the other 25% of the time we can see how much Susie loves Emma. Almost every morning, Susie is the first one in Emma's room. If Emma isn't awake yet, Susie sits there for a minute then leaves and continues to go in a check on her periodically until Emma wakes up. There's been more than one morning where we think Emma is still asleep until Susie goes in and the first thing we hear is "Doggie."
