I love this! Ahhhh … I looked over at my pups and sighed. Aren’t they the best!?!? And, our morning routines are so similar. Mine grew from ten minutes 15 years ago into 1-3 hours, and like you, I protect them well. 🥰 I loved everything about this. Embrace the interruptions is a wonderful idea.

I trained my dogs to enjoy our quiet time together by giving them a frozen Kong, in my room, while I went about my routine. When they’re done they climb up on the bed and chill. (Oh, and I gated the door for awhile but they now know it’s quiet time and the gate is a thing of the past.)
