| Before I Became A Dog Parent Before I Became A Dog Parent Author: Unknown DOG PARENT Before I was a Dog Parent: I made and ate hot meals unmolested. I had unstained, unfurred clothes. I had quiet conversations on the phone, even if the doorbell rang. Before I was a Dog Parent: I slept as late as I wanted And never worried about how late I got to bed or if I could get into my bed. Before I was a Dog Parent: I cleaned my house every day. I never tripped over toys, stuffies, and chewies or invited the neighbor's dog over to play. Before I was a Dog Parent: I didn't worry if my plants, cleansers, plastic bags, toilet paper, soap or deodorant were poisonous or dangerous. Before I was a Dog Parent: I had never been peed on Pooped on Drooled on Chewed on Or pinched by puppy teeth. Before I was a Dog Parent: I had complete control of my thoughts, My body and mind. I slept all night without sharing the covers or pillow. Before I was a Dog Parent: I never looked into big, soulful eyes and cried. I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop a hurt. I never knew something so furry and four-legged could affect my heart so deeply. Before I was a Dog Parent: I had never held a sleeping puppy just because I couldn't put it down. I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was well. I didn't know how warm it feels inside to feed a hungry puppy. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important. Before I was a Dog Parent: I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being A Dog Parent
