Who do you mean when you say "the dog"?

I'm thinking Wayne and I should enter therapy. I never thought I'd be one of "those people" that talk incessantly about their mutts. Worse, they claim their dogs talk to them, and attribute human charaterisitcs and feelings to their animals. So last night this is how the conversation went:

"Steph, Ginger is really feeling left our because you are spending so much time with Bella." ( the puppy we are dogsitting for our friends)

I'm mad at you mother, and I refuse to talk to you...or even look at you!

Only Dad understands my true feelings!
