How about this-- I am watching the view as we speak and Courtney Thorn Smith is on. She is talking about how her dogs ARE her CHILDREN!!!! and people need to realize that they aren't just pets, they are MEMBERS of the family!!! I love that comment!!! I thought that was soooo cute. Well she was also sayong how much pampering your pet is what is "IN" right now and more and more people are doing that!! And for those who may never have children, well they are having puppy showers, because they are thier children. And more and more people are doing that now!!!!! I thought that was cute too!! I love that idea!!! Puppy Showers!!! How fun would that be????
