Mine does this too as all of downstairs is wood, except one rug in the lounge. I don't think he realises anything different about me. He does not always move out my way and sometimes I almost fall over him. Most of my other dogs have realised by this stage in the relationship, to get the hell out of the way if they see me coming, but it's more because they remember what happened the last time, not because they know I can't see. After all, how can they know such things?

What do folks think about the dogs cognition of our level of sight? So in my case does Quartz know I cant see? He will flop on the floor round the house and during the night if he gets too hot he will retreat to cooler wooden floor.

Purdue sleeps where he chooses. He likes the bed that I bought for my previous dog, Carolina, a 90-pound 25.5-inch German Shepherd female. As he is only a 22-inch 70-pound male Yellow Lab, he has loads of room to stretch out. I spend a lot of time in my computer room, and he lays on his rug that we brought home from GDB when we graduated. It is in the computer room. When I'm in the living room, he's on the uncarpeted floor. My Labby Boy likes to be near people. He's a people puppy.---Be positive!

I have a crate or he sleeps just on the floor. I let him run loose since I had some break in my apartment. Before that he was always in the crate at night, but now he has free run at night. I do believe he would alert me if some one was trying to break in.Cathy & Pilot Dog, Tiny:
