We all know those "Puppy Moms" who post so many pictures to social media of their four legged friends that even the greatest of dog lovers scrolls past with only a quick glance, and the "Cat People" would rather see a chain email from 2008 than a picture of this beloved fur baby. (If Cat People even truly exist- who in their right mind wouldn't love a fetching pal over a sassy snooze buddy?)

Puppy Moms and Dads, Big Brothers and Sisters, maybe even Puppy Aunts and Uncles, can get a little crazy. Here are some signs that you happen to be one of these Woof Loving, Belly Scratching, puppy parents, and that your dog is more like your child than your pet:

1.) You talk about your dog like you would a person; "Mr. Fluffy Stuff was so happy yesterday. Everyone she saw must have walked away with a smile on their face!"

2.) When you're at work, the biggest thing on your mind is how much you miss your dog. You have to keep your furry friend off of your mind or your heart will literally ache.

3.) Your best excuse for not making plans with your friends is "Sorry, I need to spend some time with my dog." But let's be honest, you're so not sorry.

4.) When someone mentions you have dog hair on your clothes, you at the very least tell them you don't care. You might even pick up a few strands and say, "Look at that shine. Isn't my dog a beauty?"

5.) When your dog is sick, your sadness is at such a great level that life is just no fun. "Hi boss, my baby is sick today so I need to stay home... No I don't have children, my dog though. My dog is sick."

6.) Everything is better with them by your side. Need to take out the trash? "Come on Fur Baby, let's have an adventure!"

7.) Your phone's photo album rarely shows a photo of anything beside your pup.

8.) Those photos are also very worth passing around at family gatherings. No, your dog hasn't changed since Thanksgiving. Yes, everyone has seen her before. But you need to show off her ever angle and his every facial expression at any chance you get.

9.) Your money s more easily spent on your dog than on yourself. Do you really need a new sweater when your dog could have a new sweater, three toys, and a bag of treats?

10.) You wake up early to get your baby some playtime or a walk. Because if you don't, you'll feel true guilt while you're cruising around work all day long and they are laying in a crate.

11.) They are what's on your mind at all times. When was my work due? Who knows, but I sure love my dog.

12.) Your love for your fluffy babe is unreal. You can't imagine your life without them and you care more about them than anyone else. They say a dog is only a part of a person's life, but the person is a dog's whole life, and you're definitely going to make one heck of a life for your lovey boy or girl.
