With that said I've met a lot of stupid people who put dogs above humans and they're usually women and I just don't get it. They see the animal as some sort of "golden child" and somehow expect other people to immediately feel the same way. My old roommate was a chubby woman in her mid 30s who had a pet poodle that she used to put bows in her ears and place wall decorations involving the dog. The dog would crap and bark constantly with zero discipline. When ever their was incident involving the dog (the dog ate a chocolate protein bar out my backpack one time) it was always MY FAULT. Not her fault for not disciplining it nor the dog's fault for being an idiot (their are smarter dogs then poodles). Being in her mid thirties and overweight (and admittedly "picky" when it comes to men... delusional fatso...) the dog was obviously a replacement for a kid. However what makes her think that everybody will recognize the dog the same way?
My sister-in-law had a pitbull/black lab mix around when she had her first kid (my niece). My family were extremely upset about having that kind of dog around the baby... but my sister-in-law insisted on keeping it. Month later she finally gave in and let it go. But what the fuck ladies? When does your fucking dog take precedence over you newborn child!
I like these two women otherwise (well I don't like my ex roommate... but I do like my sister-in-law). They're usually pretty much reasonable/rational... but what is it about a dog that makes their brains function like you have been sniffing glue for the past 10 years? A dog is a dog. It's an animal. Yes they're great pets... man's (or woman's) best friend. But that doesn't change the fact they are an ANIMAL not a human.
