When pets stare at you. (vlemmy.net)

So I'm currently trying to work and I've got one of my dogs in the hallway just staring, judging, and it's kind of bothering me but I'm not quite sure why. I want her to stop but I don't want to be mean so I'm just putting up with it. Who else gets bothered by this? Like people staring seems pretty normal to be bothered by but I feel weird being bothered by my own pets.

I love when my cats stare at me. I can tell they are admiring, or at least I can’t think of any other reason they would just stare.

They must find you to be the most interesting thing to currently look at :)

True, there's not too much to stare at when you don't have a magic color box that connects you to other people

My older corgi loves watching the magic color box when I'm playing a game.

I like when my dog stares at me, I find it cute. She usually stops if you pay no mind to it. Besides, I also keep staring at her when she's all cuddled up or just chilling in general, so I don't think I can complain.

When they stare at me I just go up to them and pet and kiss their head until they get bored and run away barking at whatever sound they heard outside.
