Who else treats their dogs/cats like they are children?

I know I do... my babies are three little basset hound puppies (11 months) and we treat them like babies, they even cry like a baby, I think they think they are people. but they are sooo cute!

9. I DO!! my cat Maxwell is my baby, I have had him since a kitten. I used to craddle him a rock him to sleep, accept now he is spoiled rotten
10. I once worked with a woman who invited me and my cat to her cats birthday party. She gave me an invitation and the cat was registered at Petsmart. I am not kidding....That was wacko. I told her that my cat and I had a previous engagement. Is that going too far?
11. i don't have any kids but i do treat my dogs like they are my kids i love them to death

13. My BROTHERS GIRLFRIEND IS THE WORSTED ABOUT IT. THEY GO EVERYWHERE WITH HER. if HER GOLDEN RETRIEVER GETS SICK SHE WILL TAKE WORK OFF TO BE WITH HER. SHE EVEN GOT A PORTRAIT OF THE DOG TATTOOED ON HER ARM!
14. I know I do..M[ine have the run of the house..They eat better then we do..lol
15. I do I have 3 cats and I am always talking and playing with them. I also have two Rotweilers and when I ask them if they want a treat they immediately go to the cupboard I keep them in and sit to get their treat. Pets are great company and entertaining also.
16. I knew a woman who fed her chihuahua at the dinner table with her family, it had its own little place set---just like everyone else's! PS: Obviously CONGRATULATIONS, and where did you get your graduation gear for your avatar? THANK YOU! AND GOOD LUCK!
17. I sure do and he even listens better than they do too!
18. My german shephard/irish setter, Lambert, is my kid and my best friend. Sometimes i like him better than my husband. He waits for me patiently until I get home and when I get home, wham, he hits me like a ton of bricks with playtime. At times, I swear that I can understand everything he says to me, especially when I tell him that I love him and he answers I love you too. I hope you enjoy your puppies as much as I enjoy my Lambert. They make a real difference in you life. Best of luck to you.
19. omg, when i read this I though of my mom. And then I saw that you have bassets. My mom has two bassets, and she lets them sleep in the bed with her. The dogs run the house. They sit on her lap. and bassets are not lap dogs. She lets them lick her dinner plate clean every night, and my parents have to spell out word to the dog wont go crazy, like r-i-d-e. It is insane. I know that my mom loves me but I think she loves the dogs more. She wants to get another one!
20. no one i know
21. My dogs are smelly rotten! I have six greyhounds and one Boston Terrier and they are like my four legged kids. They are indoor dogs only and get as much love, attention, and toys and treats as I can lavish on them. All are rescues!
22. I didn't realize there was a difference :)
23. I do!! Mine are precious!! Want to see pictues?? LOL!
24. Dogs & cats, what are they? My children include two boys, two girls and one that I don't know the sex for sure (from what I've read, I think it's a male). My one son is about 70 pounds, tan, afraid of everything, medium length hair and has a black nose. My other son is gray, very friendly and about 8 pounds and is very hairy! My one daughter is about 30 pounds, tan, loves other kids, short hair and has a pink nose. My other daughter is about 9 pounds and is very white, shy and has really long hair. The child i don't know the sex or age of snaps back a lot, he is kind of shy but does come out of his (?) shell every now and then! ; )
25. well thats preety weird! You shouldn't be traingin them as humans smarty! You should make sure they eat dog food and quit begging for humanfood! that's what my dogs do! They barely do it anymore, because we trained them! So train your dogs too!!!
26. Well, i treat my cats like brothers and sisters so yeah
27. Anyone who is an animal lover treats their pets as babies. My dog sleeps on my bed with me everyday.
28. Dog form a bond with their owners. They are not dog's in my eyes. They are a family member.
29. i do i have a beagle and i'm definently her mommy
30. I think most people do, you can't help it
31. my cats and dogs are babies!
32. hopefully some people in oklahomo dont treat children like their pets.
33. i have a cat, and i absolutely do love her, pets are totally dependent on us humans. they hold no grudges are always there for you, how can you not love em! your pups are lucky to have you
34. My Mother-in-law says my dogs don't know they are dogs. I say what's wrong with that?
