I think I have a problem...

Posted : 1/21/2010 3:28:44 PM

So, I decided to clean out my "dog stuff" bin/area today. I started taking each thing outside, one by one, and shaking all the dog hair off of it... Then I started noticing... I have a lot of dog stuff. Of course I know a lot of people on here probably have more dog stuff... But keep in mind, ALL of this is for only ONE dog Indifferent I just kept pulling out more and more stuff, somethings that I forgot I even had.

I admit it, I think I have a problem... Tongue Tied

-Black rope lead brass hardware 5ft, used when on harness
-Pink/grey spiral lead with brass hardware 6ft. It was given to me by a friend who makes horse tack, I never use it cause Bailey needs bit of dignity hes got left. But its a great, quality, strong lead and I refuse to get rid of it.

Hi, my name is Callie and I have a pug named Tinkerbell and I am a fairy-stuff addict. It's not pretty .. well, dang it .. IT IS ... but I'm an addict.

Just the other day I posted about buying the little pewter & glass bottle of fairy dust for Tink's harness.

(taking a drink of Coke from the Tinkerbell bottle on my desk and putting my pen away in one of my two Tinkerbell cups on my desk and ignoring the Tinkerbell plate IN my desk and the Tinkerbell pen IN the Tinkerbell cup .... )

No, I think you're perfectly normal and ok. That's MY expert opinion. It's for/about your dog. Enough said!

(hoping Billy and Luna don't read this or I'm in deep doo doo)

I think there is a support group for people like you but it's not this forum. LOL Now the big question. Do you have just a few favorites that you use most of the time and the rest stays stashed away? That's me.

I really hope you're not looking for sympathy. If you have, you've come to the wrongo place, sistah! ~L~ After doing some rearranging this past weekend I came to the alarming conclusion that I have a butt load of doggie 'stuff'. Everytime DH held up a collar or jacket I just cringed. ~L~

Hi, I'm Annie & I'm a dogware-a-holic.

Poor Max! I wouldn't dare let him see this and realize how deprived he is. Thanks to Karen and Bugsy he has two collars ... for years he only had one. He has one leash and one sweater, but he does have a basket of toys in the living room.

All you need to do to solve the problem is adopt about 4 more dogs and get a sled.

Just for fun I counted 32 collars, 3 - 4' leashes, 3 5' leashes, 3- 6' leashes, 3- flexi leashes, 6 harnesses, 2 poop bag holders on various leashes, 2 sets of matching pillows for the crate covers for 2 different crates, 21 TOYS lol.

ANd 2 sleepy pillows covered in fleece that I sewed for the woofers, and a fleecy mat I made for the cargo area in the rav4.

So are you crazy? I think not! :)

I have two dogs. TWO. They are both toy sized.

I have four pop up, tent material crates. There are two wire crates in the living room, and three in my bedroom. Three plastic crates in my car, two wire crates in my friend's travel trailer, a plastic crate in the garage, and we have two ex pens. This, inspired by an article in Front & Finish. Hi, my name is Jennifer. I have two dogs, fifteen crates, and two ex pens.

I will not even begin to count collars, harnesses, and leads. If you're crazy, lock me up and throw away the key. I have a serious "dogstuff" problem LOL.

Jennie, every time that you post about your "dog stuff" I feel a little more sane. Thank you.
