Poor Doggie Left Alone

Both days this weekend, poor Rowdy was left all alone, outside in the back yard.  Saturday he was left out there from 11AM to 9PM.  When we got back, he was so happy to see us that he whined and jumped up and down, twisting and twitching like he was getting an electric shock treatment.  Sunday he was only left out in the afternoon, but he was still happy to see us.  At least the weather was nice and warm both days, so I didn't feel bad about leaving him out.  He was of course an outdoor dog when I originally got him, so he was used to being outside, but he's spoiled now!
