To me Yes, they are just dogs, but they are my dogs! therefore I can do what i want with them. I feel the same about all you They are YOUR dogs, you treat them. Yo as you want with them as longs as its not abuse its all good to me! I never fight the phrase just dogs because thas what they are, but that doesnt stop them from also being my friends or my 2 boys or just great companions.
I say if you have the disposables income to spoil them do it! I think its wrong when they are spoiled to the point where they think they are boss like the dogs on the dog whisperer. I don't think its wrong to spoil them with love and affection and toys. There are so many "Just a Dogs" that don't get the love that you all at YT give. They are not lucky enough to have someone who cares enough to think about them when they are out shopping.
I think for people who are just passing through your dogs life, its no big deal when the complain about you spoiling your "JUST a Dog." THey are not going to be around anyway so who cares about their opinions. But for those who see your babies on a day to day basis or regularly dressing them and spoiling them gives your dog so much character and adds a positive spark to every life they touch.
You cannot give a dog too much love and gifts.. because there are so many in this world who don't have anyone who cares that much. |
