Yes, but did she ever take me by surprise! When Maggie was about a year old, we were both asleep one night (on my bed, of course) when suddenly she erupted off the bed, rushing to the door with deep, deep barks! As I woke, I realized there were headlights coming up my driveway -- very unusual, as I live in a remote area and rarely see a vehicle even during daylight hours. Turned out it was a lost tourist -- who needed information, but also was very wary of the big dog I was holding by the collar (so she wouldn't 'greet' him a la Daisy -- but he didn't know that!
