you know you love your dog when...

* you clean up his barf multiple times a day and can still eat your dinner
* your carpet is covered in fur, you can see it, and you still lay on it to pet your dogs
* you hand-feed your dog so he won't eat his food too fast
* you save up money to buy a several-hundred-dollar brace so your dog won't be in pain when she walks
* you build your dog a custom high chair and line in it soft cushions so his butt won't hurt
* you set up a swimming pool so your dog can do no-impact aerobics to stay fit and protect her joints
* you clean up diarrhea off the carpet - three times - and manage not to kill him afterwards
* you join an online support group for dogs with a special disease and you think this is a completely normal thing to do
* you say "yes" when people ask if you have kids and you haven't ever given birth to anything
* 75% of your photos have at least one dog in them

LOL! I think 100% of the pictures on our camera right now have at least one dog in them.

kelsey, glad i could provide a laugh for you and eli. sometimes, some of those things on my list don't make me want to laugh until much much later. :)
