I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | I kept looking for the, "I spend so much I am about to get kicked out of the house by my husband" answer choice...but unfortunately, that one wasn't listed Seriously though....I go wayyyyyy overboard with my furkids - and I DO realise it. In one week ALONE I will not even admit how much I spent on clothes for them It's embarrassing - even for me to admit HERE to YOU all lol

| Spoiled? Not by a long shot!! It's simply taking care of NEEDS I prefer to think they are indulged but spoiled - I don't think so! lol I am just trying to give a little back to them for all that they give to me. Yeah, that's it! It's a matter of perspective and my perspective is they only get what they need. They need new toys as it keeps their brains active. They need all those sweaters to keep them warm so I won't have to pay high vet bills if they get cold and sick. They need the stroller because they would get tangled up in in one of their many leashes if I took them out together and tried to make them all walk. They need the leashes as it just wouldnt be right if they had to use one that didn't match their various collars. They could get a complex from that alone. They need various collars to keep their neck from chafing in case the same one rubs in the same spot. They need the harnesses in case they need to be walked. They need premium dog food and treats for their health and well-being. So you see - they are not spoiled - I am simply taking care of their needs. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!! |

| You guys are so funny. I am still in shock at myself since I got my first Yorkie. I've had dogs for a long, long time. I've taken them to training classes and maybe bought them a bed and leather collars and leashes.(bigger dogs) I rarely gave them any kind of treat. NOW, these little Yorkie buggers have done something to my mind. I LOVE to buy them stuff. (of course I love to shop anyways) They have a cupboard full of natural, wholesome snacks and treats. They have so much stuff it's ridiculous! I think it is called Yorkie Craziness or something... I'm hoping it will settle down soon.. Thanks for taking part in the poll!! |

| LOL! I have thought the same thing! In fact, I like to read some of the posts aloud so hubby will find my purchasing a little less excessive. It's not working as well as I thought it might.

| Omega, I feel exactly as you do. What is it with these Yorkster kids anyway that they can put such a spell on you. Spoil you say? What's that? I'm still trying to spoil mine and wont quit till I do. No such thing as too much spoiling!!! |

| not quilty...don't get me wrong, winston gets everything he needs, but i really don't think i go overboard. he gets presents for his birthday and christmas, but that's it. and i think he appreciates them even more. i don't buy any clothes for him, he is fine without them. he gets his food and a few treats, and of course medical care and grooming. that's it. but overboard no way i just can't afford it. now spoiled as in love and affection, you bet, in that department he is definately spoiled!!! |

| Guilty....I definitely go a bit overboard w/ buying for Mojo. He deserves the best of the best and needs more and more.....okay, so I think.....hee,hee. I do have my "good" months were I "try" not to buy too much.....those don't seem to last long....especially when I log back on here and see new things!!

| My vet has even commented on how "spoiled" my babies are. The lady at the pet store loves to see me come in and has even said that I must really love and spoil them with as much as I buy weekly.
