You May Be a Dog Person If...

I promise not to post too much about our dogs (or dogs in general), but I came across this list on the internet and just had to share. I'm sure all would agree that most of these sound like Jeff and me. To read more pet humor, go to http://www.sancarlosvet.com/ and click on "humor."

You May Be a Dog Person If...

You have a kiddie wadding pool in the yard but no small children.

You have baby gates permanently installed at strategic places around the house, but no babies.

The trash can is more or less permanently in the kitchen sink in order to keep the dog out of it while you are at work.

You can't see out the passenger side of the windshield because there are nose prints all over it.

You refer to yourselves as mommy and daddy.

Your dog sleeps with you.

You have 32 different names for your dog. Most make no sense, but he understands.

You like people who like your dog. You despise people who don't.

You carry dog biscuits in your purse or pocket at all times.

You talk about your dog the way other people talk about their kid.

You sign and send birthday/anniversary/Christmas cards from your dog.

You put an extra blanket on the bed so your dog can be comfortable.

You would rather stay home on a Friday night and cuddle your dog than go to the movies.

You and the dog come down with something like flu on the same day. Your dog sees the vet while you settle for an over-the-counter remedy from the drug store.

Your dog is getting old and arthritic, so you go buy lumber and a build a small staircase so he can climb on the bed by himself.

You have your dog's picture on your office desk (but no one else's).

You skip breakfast so you can walk your dog in the morning before work.

You're the only idiot walking in the pouring rain because your dog needs his walk.

Your parents refer to your pet as their grandog.

You keep an extra water dish in your bedroom in case your dog gets thirsty at night.

You never completely finish a piece of steak or chicken (your dog needs a taste too).

You avoid vacuuming the house as long as possible because your dog is afraid of the vacuum cleaner.

You keep eating after finding a dog hair in your pasta.

And the number one reason you know you are a dog person: Your dog is the star of your website (or in our case blog).
