You know you love your dog when...

    You would gag and throw away the food if you found a human hair in it, but if it's you dog's you just take the hair out and keep eating.
    You leave family gatherings, wakes, and all social gatherings to get home to your dogs

    You're more excited about your dog.com signature than anything else in the last few days!

    ...... your dogs have their own scrapebooks.
    ...... you know to the ounce how much your dog weighs, but have no clue how much you weigh! (If I fit in my skinny jeans,it's good enough!)
    ....... you love the smell of their paws/ ears/ breath although others may find it stinky.
    ....... you are a self-proclaimed "neat freak" yet you allow two huge, furry, slobbery dogs to live in your house (and on your furniture) and love every minute of it!

    You know you love your dog when...
    You come home and really really need to use the restroom, but he's been home for several hours by himself, so you give him as much time as he needs to "go potty" and hope you don't pee your pants!

    ...you aren't made when your large dog jumps into bed with you at 7am.
    ...you don't mind taking a stool sample for the vet.
    ...you can stand her snoring, even though it keeps you awake...

    You know you love your dog when:

    (These are from my 6 year old son.)

    You will take her out to the yard at midnight, 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. and then pick her up to go back inside to your bed.

    You will sing a lullaby to her when she goes to bed with you at 8 p.m.and after each potty trip.

     (Bubbles sleeps with my 6 year old son. Yes, he does sing her to sleep every night.)

    One from me:

    You know you love your dog when you keep an eye on all the petcare websites or stores looking for the newest and latest dog gadget and then immediately order it.

    You won't go to a restaurant that doesn't allow dogs.
    AGREED!!!  I think it is totally unfair that they won't allow properly trained dogs in some stores as well. 
     
    This one may have already been said but you know you love your dog when you find yourself boycotting some of the stores that won't allow your furry kidlings.  GREAT THREAD!

    ...she helps you eat your ice cream, lick for lick.
     
    ...you've just said, "Oh why not?" and just reused the plate she just licked clean...for your OWN dessert. (Okay, I admit it, I HATE DOING DISHES!!!)
     
    ...you cuddle with your dogs BEFORE you cuddle with your boyfriend. (common consensus up here is that the dogs generally smell better [;)])

    Or you let him lick your plate when you are done.
