You
Know You’re
A Dog Person
When....
You have
a kiddie
wading
pool in
the
yard,
but no
small
children.
Lint
wheels
are on
your
shopping
list
every
week.
You have
baby
gates
permanently
installed
at
strategic
places
around
the
house,
but no
babies.
The
trash
basket
is more
or less
permanently
installed
in the
kitchen
sink, to
keep the
dog out
of it
while
you're
at work.
You
can't
see out
the
passenger
side of
the
windshield
because
there
are
nose-prints
all over
the
inside.
You like
people
who like
your
dog. You
despise
people
who
don't.
You talk
about
your dog
the way
other
people
talk
about
their
kids.
You put
an extra
blanket
on the
bed so
your dog
can be
comfortable.
You go
to the
pet
supply
store
every
Saturday
because
it's one
of the
very few
places
that
lets you
bring
your dog
inside,
and your
dog
loves to
go with
you.
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
drugstore.
Your dog
is
getting
old and
arthritic,
so you
go buy
lumber
and
build
her a
small
staircase
so she
can
climb
onto the
bed by
herself.
You
match
your
furniture/carpet/clothes
to your
dog.
You
lecture
people
on
responsible
dog
ownership
every
chance
you get.
You keep
an extra
water
dish in
your
second-floor
bedroom,
in case
your dog
gets
thirsty
at night
(after
all, her
other
dish is
way down
on the
first
floor...)
Your
freezer
contains
more dog
bones
than
anything
else.
You
shovel a
zigzag
path in
the back
yard
snow so
your dog
can
reach
all her
favorite
spots.
You
avoid
vacuuming
the
house as
long as
possible
because
your dog
is
afraid
of the
vacuum
cleaner.
You keep
eating
even
after
finding
a dog
hair in
your
pasta.
You make
popcorn
just to
play
catch
with
your
dog.
Your
jewelry
box
contains
no
jewels
... just
those
fasteners
from
vari-kennels.
Every
time you
read the
name
Bob, you
think
the
guy's
first
name is
Best of
Breed.
Your
house
isn't
carpeted
- the
fuzzy
furballs
under
your
feet are
soft
enough
...
Your
hungry
hubby
comes
home
from
work,
lifts
the
cover of
the pan
on the
stove
and
says,
"Is this
people
food or
dog
food?"
At your
dinner
parties,
you
always
double
check
the
butter
before
putting
it on
the
table.
You put
important
papers
in the
latest
issue of
your
breed
magazine
... you
know you
will
find
them
there.
You have
dog hair
stuck to
the tape
on
wrapped
gifts.
You show
up at
the car
dealers
with a
ruler,
to
measure
and see
if your
big dog
crate
will
fit.
Before
the
actual
purchase
you make
the
dealer
cringe
by
insisting
that you
load
both
crates
and dog
into the
shiny,
new
vehicle
to make
sure it
works!
You
remove
all the
seats
from the
van
except
the two
in the
front so
you have
room for
crates...
You
cringe
at the
price of
food in
the
grocery
store
but
think
nothing
of the
cost of
dog food
or
treats.
When you
get your
latest
roll of
film and
there
isn't a
single
picture
of a
two-legged
person
in it...
