For all you companion animals (ok, let's admit it, that's our favorite part of being a dog), I have found a near-foolproof way to ensure I don't miss out. Nap on their shoes! I've attached a photo demonstrating my technique. If you are seeing signs your DogMom is going out (showering, messing around with things that jingle, going to the place where the leash is kept), possibly on foot (yay!) or The CAR (whee!), immediately arrange yourself to snooze adorably on or about their shoes. Works for me. 

Summer's nearly here, stay chill and nap on.
