Yes, my children stand their with their Gene Juarez haircuts, their coaches purses, wearing their Hollister/American Eagle clothes and like to tell me I buy everything for the dogs. Everything in the house is for the dogs!!!

good grief, like I do nooothing for them. pleaaaseee

Well Missy, what do you think my family thinks with all my poopers? hahaha!!! I have 3 boys and a husband and they all think that I love my dogs more than them. They are teasing....I think. But like someone else said the doggies dont back talk or give you any grief. Unconditional love all the time. All they ask for is to be loved. I can not believe how much Lillie looks like her mama! She is the spitting image of Daisy Duke---beautiful!!!

My grown sons are animal lovers too and get a kick out of all our pets. I think we all spoil each other.

They do all roll their eyes at the things I buy the dogs. They think I am being cruel with the clothes, think one carrier was enough instead of 3 and don't comprehend the real need for 832 toys. But they let me indulge myself once in a while without too much teasing.

Our 4 dogs are a part of the family -- never before or even equal to our human members but they are still an important part of what makes us whole and happy.

I think when husbands loves and spoils the babies as much as we do, there will be no problem. There will be problem when there is gap. Although my husband has learn to love our Siu Pao, he will never reach the level of me loving Siu Pao. When Siu Pao pee and misses the box a little, I'll just go "Oh, not again Siu Pao" and that is it...my husband think that I should give him a tap on his butt which I simply don't find the need to at this point. Its not like he is biting me or something worse than that. Then hubby starts to force his point of view on me and I start to feel protective and the argument starts. Sounds silly but it happens.

I love my husband and three skinkids but I always tell Finnigen I love him best.

He loves me unconditionally, always eats his supper, never asks to have friends over or to be driven anywhere, and most of all, never asks me for money!!!!

My 17 year old macho boy is extremely jealous of my pups. He says I love them more and treat them better. Well, why wouldn't I treat them better - they don't sass back and call me names and put down, do they?

They don't leave their clothes lying around and they love ME unconditionally! Some kids....

JESSY_RN2B · 02-09-2007, 05:23 PM

I have converted my hubby into a dog lover..........he is a cat lover but had never owned a dog until now...........at first, he was jealous because he didn't understand.........now he is equally as loving

twalla · 02-09-2007, 06:13 PM

No kids for me except 3 teen nieces. The 13yr is so jealous and I havent picked Sam up yet!!! She told me thats all you ever talk about now and you just buy him stuff, you love him more!!!! I think its funny.

cchu · 02-09-2007, 06:18 PM

I do not have any kids but my BF often says that I do more for Zoe than I do for him (totally true). Zoe's my little baby!!! He needs the extra love.

Who else do they have but us?

yougetthesmiles · 02-10-2007, 06:50 AM

well I'm glad I'm not the only one lol

we went to the mall last night and I took Lillie with us and she was in her carrier, it was so funny cause you could see her little nose sticking out of the holes lol
we got stopped about 4 times and they asked, "is there a dog in there? I said yes, and of course I had to show her off! My hubby and kids would just stand there and roll there eyes lol
Everyone just loves her though, she gets so much attention. There all so smitten by how small she is, and most everyone says " is she full grown? How old is she? Will she get any bigger?

But we had fun and Lillie loves going bye bye!

Jill,
I cant wait to see Daisy again in March, I hope you can make the B_day party!!!!!

Pattie · 02-10-2007, 07:14 AM

I didn't get my girls until after all the kids were gone. My 3 children live on their own, the last one (still in college) just realizing how spoiled she was. She often makes statements now remarking about how she didn't realize how spoiled she was, until now and if I ever feel a need I can treat her to things TOO! I know she is jelaous and she doesn't see half of what I go for the girls!

She doesn't want to understand when I spend $$ on the girls, because she does want me to spend it on her. I tell her she had her chance, now it's "mine" I choose to buy what "I" want for the girls. My older daughter says nothing, My son (middle child) rolls his eyes, smirks and says "Mom I don't think you flipped to much, as long as it makes you happy, it does & it shows" he smirks again. I know he is surprised (all 3 are I guess) but he is the most supportive, altho I would love to know what he is really thinking

Shadow · 02-10-2007, 08:29 AM
