You Know You're A Dog Person If...

You have a kiddie wading pool in the yard but no small children
You hang around the dog section of your local bookstore way too often
You have baby gates permanently installed at strategic places around the house but no babies
You don't think it's the least bit strange to stand in the back yard chirping "Molly, Pee!" over and over at your dog
You get an extra long hose on your shower massage just so you can use it to wash the dog in the tub, without making the dog sit hip deep in water
Your weekend activities are planned around taking your dog for a hike
You refer to yourself as "mommy" and "daddy"
Your dog sleeps with you
You shovel a zig-zag path in the back yard snow so your dog can reach all of his favorite places
Your have 32 different names for your dogs, most make no sense but they understand
Your dog eats poop but you still let him/her kiss you (but not immediately after, of course)
Poop has become a source of conversation for you and your significant other
You are the only idiot walking in the pouring rain because your dog needs his walk
You lecture people on responsible dog ownership every chance you get
You keep eating even though you find a dog hair in your pasta
You carry dog biscuits in your pockets all the time
You talk about your dogs like other people talk about their kids
