I tend to feel bad for a quite a while. If my Master and I get into an argument, or I've done something stupid, even after I'm punished for it I still feel bad. It will eventually wear off, but for it to run it's course faster I need my Masters help. Usually he will snuggle me, or have my lay with my head in his lap for a while. That helps a lot, especially if he pets my hair. I have difficulty touching him after a punishment. I feel like I shouldn't be allowed. He will usually pull me too him, and that helps me to get over that much faster.
