You have an adorable fluffy friend to be with, and nobody can stop you! No priority for gallery openings, clubs, and sometimes even for a party that's held ten minutes away from your place.
“Hey, there is a place giving away free drinks today until 8 pm, so we're all going to hit happy hour, what about you?”
“I'd love to but I would rather stay with Bella to have her slobber all over my arms after I have showered; besides she would like to spill all over my black pants”
2. You keep showing off their pictures to people as if they are your child
Your friend is showing a video of his two years old kid experiencing walking on the bowling alley for the first time? Step aside buddy, everyone must see the latest pictures of your puppy wearing various sombreros. You show them to everyone, and you also post them online to make sure that everyone can see it!
3. When you have to leave them, you worry like crazy
It is nice to have the dog sitter let you FaceTime with your pup. Although your dog would just end up barking at the screen and you are not totally sure they can see what is on the aluminosilicate glass, it still helps your heart even if you end shedding a few tears.
4. You are sure of that they have opinions.
While the employee at the pet shop can sometimes have the audacity to suggest that a bee is the same as a fish,hit way too close to home, your pup can tell the difference!
5. Pampering your dog, more than you pamper yourself
Ivy needs to get her ears cleaned and her feather trimmed, so...its spa time. Well, it is ridiculous that an ear clean, haircut, nail file, and bath for a dog now costs more than a highlight, but that fluffy lovable four legged friend is going to get all what she needs for her beauty.
6. You literally kick people out of bed for them.
“Well, you can see that there is no room for you here, and she is used to sleeping at my feet. It is like we are not the system that can include a third party”… “I can call you an Uber, I Guess”
7. You get seriously jealous if they pay more attention to someone other than you.
How dare she belly up to someone she only met five minutes ago? Has she not notice that I’m the one who fed her every day for all her life?! Doesn't she know how much I panicked when she was getting her first round of shots?! This is the exact feeling of betrayal!
8. You may think that having a vet friend is the perfect idea.
You would call your vet for anything that looks off, you send pictures of any signs, panic about that tiny piece of chocolate. When you think that there is something off in their puke, you do not even have a problem taking sample of it for analysis. Thank god for having that vet friend because otherwise, you would be totally broke!
9. “My dog” not “our dog”, just to be clear
There is nothing more to say about this, “This is MY dog and if this relationship could go to shit, there will be no dog visits rights”. Mine, not ours. Clear?!
10. You talk to your dog more than you do with anybody else.
Do not tell me that my dog does not talk back because he cannot understand what I’m telling him; I’m not discussing the in’s and out’s of the Presidential campaign. Honestly, my puppy and I usually have that brainstorming session about some issues related to my career, Just sayin'.
11. You never admit their faults.
Excuses are always ready against any complains! She does not really bark that loud, she is just expressing herself. It is not that bad when he crazily keeps hoarding socks. Moreover, he clearly feels good when he rolls in the grass straight after getting a bath. Just lighten up guys!
12. You like to take them wherever you can
Unluckily, not all dogs are just as portable as tiny pups. It would be much easier if they could simply fit inside a purse. I do not like dog strollers and won’t buy one, but I get it!
13. It is not your dog’s problem, it is the other dog’s.
In the dog world, there are so many bully dogs, but your dog could never be one of them, he just barks because other dogs bark first. DUH.
14. You are so sure that they are your best friend.
Friends come and go, but your dog’s love for you is the most unconditional. They have been there for you through thick and thin, They love to see you all the time, just your presence makes them happy. They are so cute putting their head on your knee in a loving attempt to comfort you when you are sad. They are the best and definitely deserve the $10 chicken jerky!
