You Know You're a Dog Person When . . .
You have a kid's wading pool in the yard, but no small children.
You have baby gates installed at strategic places around the
house, but no babies - just dogs.
The garbage can is permanently installed under the kitchen sink
to keep the dog(s) out of it while you're not home OR it has a lock!
You can't see out the passenger side window of your car because there are slobber marks all over the inside.
Pooper scooping has become a source of conversation for you and your significant other at the end of a day.
You have 12 different names for your dog - most make no sense to humans, but the dog ALWAYS understands you.
Your dog eats poop sometimes, but you still let them kiss you
[ just not immediately afterward of course! ]
You sign and send greeting cards from you and the dog(s).
You put an extra pillow/blanket on your bed so the dog(s) can be more comfortable. In the winter, a heated mattress pad.
You'd rather stay home on Sat night and watch a rented DVD and
cuddle your dog(s) than go out to the real movies.
You don't think it's the least bit strange to stand in the backyard while it's raining because your dog needs to go out during a storm.
Your dog's getting old & arthritic, so you get them a
small staircase to climb onto the bed or couch by themselves.
You have your dog's picture(s) on your office desk.
Your parents refer to your dog(s) as their granddog(s).
You never completely finish a steak so your dog gets to try too.
You keep eating even after finding a dog hair in your pasta.
You make popcorn to play catch with your dog(s) while watching TV.
You keep an endless supply of sticky hair removal rollers on hand for dog fur - every room of the house, in the cars & at the office!
