5-Found yourself feeling uncomfortable when you go to a home that does not have dogs?

  1. Yep ... you're a dog lover. If you change most of those to say they're about cats, you have me. Most people just don't understand that our pets aren't really pets, they become our children.

  2. They definitely are our kids. I love 'em! I'd have cats too if I could, but I think 3 dogs is plenty for now!
