[quote=Anonymous]When I was younger and had a dog, the dog was definitely a member of the family. However, we definitely understood that the dog was a non-human and unequal member of the family and our care of him took that into account. He had the run of the house until there were guests and then he was restricted to certain parts of the house. He went with us many places, but not all places and he often got shorter shrift when it came to his care, such as staying at a boarding kennel when we traveled/vacationed. Or sometimes he stayed home alone and just had a neighborhood kid come in to feed him while we were away. It's the life of a dog. There is something mentally wrong with dog owners who equate their pets with human family members or even elevate the pet's rights above human family members. They have lost their sense of proportion and propriety.[/quote]
