I think it is a sign of a good bond, he doesn't want you to leave him and so wants to be with you protecting you every step of the way....even if you are only going to the bog lol!

Tinkerbell also does it and when we are in the kitchen she follows us around everywhere. She sits next to me when I am on the toilet and stands next to my partner ian when he goes. I'm not bothered with this, used to the lack of privacy with two young children. But she has recently develoed a fascination with water and the hosepipe over the last few weeks, so much so that when Ian took a pee the other day she stuck her head there trying to drink his pee as it flowed out sick

Ha ha that is funny about your bloke, at least he ain't tried that on me yet lol and like you said also Alfie follows me and my partner around everywhere getting under our feet which can be really annoying almost tripping over him all the time lol plus we have a 14 week old little boy which is really hecktick at mo as he's now teething the little bugger and not settling, i was wondering if Alfie would get jealous when he was born but he's fine i let him have a lick of his face every now and then and everytime we go out his leads attached to the buggy just walking fine beside it, was just the peeing thing i thought was weird Big Grin

Same here. Even if he is dead asleep, if I move, he moves. Nothing wrong with it although sometimes I wish I could go a few places alone...

Ditto here. It's just their way I think. They are so attached to their family, it's a pain in the butt at times but so sweet if you think about it. I don't mind having a shadow, you get used to it after a while and learn to look behind you before you step backward!

Yep Lola does this also and she loves a bath, whenever I have a shower she either sits and waits for me or jumps in.

Another thing she does is whenever ANYONE turns the bathroom tap on she darts in the bathroom and stands up the sink waiting for a lick of toothpaste Big Grin although we've had to stop with the toothpaste due to Lola having an alergy to something.
