[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of the comments here are saying things like "People bring their dogs to stores because they think their dog is their child". 
People bring their dogs to stores if they're allowed to. Or maybe if they're not allowed to, because they're assholes think rules don't apply to them. The leap to "people think dogs are children" is one that critics are making. No one thinks their dog is a child. (Though yes, I do refer to myself as my dog's mum because saying I'm her owner sounds gross).

And PS people sometimes put their dog in a sling if the dog has a tendency to get tired or decide she doesn't feel like walking anymore. I just pick mine up, but a sling would be a lot more convenient. [/quote]

No, saying you are her mom is gross. Yuck. [/quote]

Well, you’ll have to get over it. It’s weird to call her vet or day care and say “it’s Larla, Daisy’s owner”. I don’t think she’s my child or a human being and I don’t take her anywhere she isn’t allowed.  [/quote]

Lol what? No it’s not. I had cats for years and never once got tripped up on a phone call to the vet because I think it’s deranged to refer to yourself as the parent of an animal. I would say, “it’s larla, calling to check in on the lab results for my cat larline.”  I loved the cats I had a lot but I was most certainly not the mother of any of them. [/quote]
