Well I've gotta give that an !


Certainly some folks take love for Fido too far. While some people just treat their pets what I'd label a little odd, i.e., expensive dog beds that look like miniature people beds, diamond collars, and of course those adorable-yet-goofy outfits, that's not what I'd call "too far." I've seen people put a pet's welfare above a spouse's or children's, or spend thousands of dollars they don't have to spend on vet bills to try and treat fatal conditions. That's just a little bit.... But hey, who am I to judge?

My only concern is when people treat their pets like royalty, and then something occurs that winds the pet up in another home where they receive mediocre care at best, making the rehoming process even more difficult and confusing.

But hey, a spoiled animal is better off than one without any love at all!

Yeah, anything that takes away from God's glory is bad.

i may spoil my dog, but he is still a dog.

Sometimes the pets are all one has. They do fill a need, and people just naturally love them. I don't believe that is bad at all.

We just lost our dog that we had for almost 13 years. I find it rather strange that she died the day after I moved out of the house... but anyways. I think some people get too obsessed with their pets. My grandfather and step-grandmother base their schedule around the dog. Our family will have parties at each other's houses about 5 times a year, and they ALWAYS leave early because they have to go feed the dog, or they are afraid the dog might get lonely.

I spoil my pets, I'll admit it. And yes, my dog does wear clothes, but he's a Toy Fox Terrier and they get cold during the winter, so I have an excuse. I do tend to treat my pets like my children, but I don't have kids & don't want them, so I have to have something to spoil. I think people can sometimes go too far, but to each their own right?
