That's a good one. The serious or disturbed dog look is a funny one. Nadi will sometimes get a concerned look on her face when we are somewhere new or if she is on a stool in a restaurant and I get too far away from her. I like that she is so attached to me but sometimes I think she might be a little too attached. I have very infrequently left her behind in her life but those must have been pretty traumatizing because now every time I go just a little bit out of her sight, she has a bit of a panic attack.

I've heard that's because dogs have no concept of time.. 5 minutes or 5 days.. same thing in their mind.. but then again I'm no dog-whisperer
I saw a study that was done on dogs that seem to be able to tell time but they cannot. The dogs base their idea of time on sounds and smells. There was one kind of heartbreaking study that showed that dogs go through a rather intense depression as soon as the scent of their owner starts to fade. this is why in the few instances when I have traveled without Nadi, that she goes on a hunger strike when she is staying in someone else's house or in a kennel, but if the person stays in my house to watch her she remains happy-ish while I am gone.
Sounds like that dog has abandonment issues 😆
