I agree. I've never seen such a thing with people and their dogs as I do here. I expect you are right red chariot. Their children are gone and now the pets have replaced the children and are treated like children. It's the dardest thing. What happened to pets just being an animal and treated as such? Bringing them to restaurants, putting them in strollers, caring them around like Paris Hilton does her little dog. I understand that people love their pets but they are just that.....pets.
