Haha, I understand! I am single and just bought a 3 bedroom house. Part of the whole reason I bought a house rather than continuing to live in an apartment was that I wanted a puppy! So since I got Bailey of course I spoil her! My friends and family always think Bailey's closet is sooo funny (secretly I know they think it's crazy). And she only has about 10 outfits! Amazingly she doesn't even have her own room. She could, but I'd rather she share my room.

I don't think you're crazy at all. Sasha is like my child. I spoil her to death, give her a good food, tons of toys and tons of loving. I'm even starting to get little outfits for her, especially for the holidays. When I have to leave and go to work, I feel horrible because I hate leaving her at home. Even if my parents are home with her, I still feel bad because I know she always wants me home. You're not crazy at all. You just love your babies dearly like everyone else here on YT.

diane boden · 08-30-2009, 10:37 AM

I must be crazy too. I dont have any kids either and have never really wanted any, though I love my nephew and nieces, I've always prefered animals. My sister who has 4 kids from 7-18 used to think I was crazy for 'wasting' so much money on my kids, but now she has 2 cocker spaniels and they're her babies. She would tease Alfie when we took him down but now she talks to him like hes one of the kids, I find it so funny.
Mine dont have a wardrobe-yet- but I keep looking. Years ago people would insist on making stupid comments about my dogs and their size, now I cant walk down the street without kids wanting to pet them, they even think its cute when they wear bows.

You are not crazy at all. I am thinking that you need to get them a stroller so you can take them to the softball games. Daisy and Teddy LOOOVE their stroller and they love to lay in it and nap together. I had to get a super large one for them to fit together and have enough room to both lie down (they are 14 lbs each). Your friends haven't seen anything yet... wait till you get them a stoller. haha I did get some ribbing from friends and even hubby at first but now hubby will push them around in the stroller at doggie events and he loves the ooohs and awwws he gets from the ladies.

anniernc · 08-30-2009, 11:56 AM

Well I guess I'm CRAZY too. I won't leave my girls for long periods and all 4 of them are so spoiled. My family thinks I'm crazy because my Heidi who is 17 1/2 yrs old has been on sub-q fluids every day for 3 years and also multiple meds. They think that I should have her euthanized. She is not in any pain (she has chronic kidney failure and congestive heart failure) and she loves to just lie around or be held and that's just what I'm going to do as long as she is not suffering. My kids are all grown and gone and these are my babies now.

mjharpst · 08-30-2009, 01:58 PM

Some of our friends completely understand- they tend to think that it is weird when our kids arent with us. Then we have friends who cant stand the way that we treat our dogs, but thats why we dont see them that often now. I am meeting new people all the time and it is getting easier to figure out who the friends are that will last- they have to understand our love for our poochies or its not there. I have met more and more yorkie lovers and have realized I am not alone in my insanity! LoL!

I agree! I'm thinking of getting a stroller and wonder how DH's deal with it. Mine goes along with whatever I want, but I wondered if a stroller would be too much, but now that I see other hubbies are cool with it, it's going to be my next purchase. Especially because Barley isn't friendly to other dogs in stores so if he's in a stroller he can go in and smell the smells while I shop, but not have to deal with other dogs being in his face. Thanks for sharing!

chestermama · 08-30-2009, 03:37 PM

No you are not crazy you are passionate about your animals and everyone elses, you are a better person for it. I would spend time with chester before I would some of my friends, he dont judge me

capt_noonie · 08-30-2009, 06:42 PM

Have you guys seen these ridiculously expensive english baby strollers? They are by silver cross and are about $2000. Could you imagine if we got those for our furbabies? Maybe then they can call us crazy! I still want one though

I want the accessories that go with skinbabies, but not the baby itself, lol.

BaxtersMommy · 08-30-2009, 07:02 PM

HAHA that is awesome! Funny, because I looked at a stroller last week and decided it was just too small. I will keep looking. Where did you get yours, I love it! Are there any kind of hooks to strap them in with their harness on. lol My Baxter would jump right out!

You are perfectly normal. I also do the things you do for your dogs. We give our yorkie lots of care and love. He is the light of my life. We dont like to leave him alone in the house and we take him every place we go.

BaxtersMommy · 08-30-2009, 07:03 PM

wow! that's an expensive purchase. I don't think I will be spending that on a stroller. Gosh, I have been looking at horses that cost that! LOL
