I totally get this.
People laugh at me when they see how much I baby Poppy, but she IS my baby and I take good care of her! whats so funny about that?
I also HATE it when people comment on her clothing if she is wearing any.
I hate the whole "its a dog not a doll" or "its cruel to dress your dog up".
NO whats cruel is putting your dog outside in the freezing cold when its raining or snowing WITHOUT any clothing on! she gets cold, I know this because she shivers.. so how can putting a coat on her when shes cold be cruel?
I bet we treat our dogs better then half of those small minded folk treat their kids!
