Does your Poodle get mad at you for being on the computer?

Kala is just like a kid. When she thinks I have been on the computer too long, she comes and plops her big paws on top of me(sometimes accidentally hitting the keyboard so if I type something funny blame it on her). It's like she says " mom get off the computer and come play with me already".

Suri will do the same thing and Aoki will just lay her chin resting on the keyboard! This was a taken a few months ago when I bringing work home a little too much - so I don't do that as often:)

Teddy tries to get my attention by bringing various toys to me. If I don't notice the first one, he gets another, and then another. Sometimes when I finally realize that he's trying to make me notice, there will be half a dozen toys scattered on the floor around my chair. I wish he would bark at me or touch me or something.
Tate will ever so gently put his paw on top of mine and pull at my hand a bit. I'll usually shake my hand to get his off and he'll then slap down on my hand and do it more furiously every time I shake his away.

I'd prefer Teddy's way! lol
Y'know, as I typed that I thought be careful what you wish for. LOL
Liberty just takes her nose, puts it ever so gently under my forearm and lifts my hand right off of the keyboard. Then she looks up at me with those big brown eyes and wags her tail like crazy. How can you help but stop typing when they want to be with you so badly?? And who says she has me wrapped around her little paw??
Nope Mist doesnt care....he just goes and lays down and takes a nap like he is doing now. he always has to be with me and when i get up and go to bed he'll be right behind me lol
Captain will either climb up into my lap, lay under my chair or lay on my toes.
Paris doesn't mind at all, she spends all day with me and had to learn to leave me alone when I was working on other dogs etc, so she has just assumed when I'm busy at the computer it's the same! She does have to be laying right behind my chair (so I can't move without knocking her) though, so she can't possibly miss if I get up!!

Computer time at work means she can get cuddles and pats though, cos that's when I'm not grooming a dog, and she'll come rest her chin on my knee waiting for cuddles then!
oh yes, it bothers mochi. she grumbles and groans when i open up my laptop and also sometimes when i reach for the tv remote to turn on the tv!

That's pretty cute actually! Although i suppose it'll get annoying if you're actually trying to get something done...
Yes! It's so funny. I'm a romance writer, so Nikki is used to me being home all the time, and often at the computer. Usually, she's fine with it, but at about 3 o'clock every day, she decides that enough is enough. She does the same thing Liberty does, putting her little nose under my hand and flipping my hand away from the keyboard. If I play with her and cuddle her for half an hour or so, she lets me go back to work. The break is good for both of us. I always write better after a little Nikki break!
My Sunny pokes his nose in my side! But that doesn't happen very often because I try not to be on the computer too much.

No, my spoos don't bother about me being on my computer. Thank goodness since I am training for medical transcription. If one of the dogs wants to go out for potty, the politely come over to my chair, stand there, and look at me. Their very good at communicating silently.
