Pet parents


Whenever I would see people with their pets, especially with their dogs, treating them like their children, it always made me laugh and I would think to myself that I will never be like that when I have an animal. I always thought animals were animals and needed to be treated that way, even Jake thought that too. Well, welcome to Pet Parents Anonymous, our names our Jake and Whitney Zachry and we are pet parents! I never thought the day would come. For those who don't know, we have a boxer named Clara Belle and we love her. Jake has done an amazing job training her and for the most part she obeys her commands. She is a spazz sometimes, but she makes us smile and laugh everyday and we love cuddling with her and playing with her; she really is a part of the family. I will be sad when she is not here anymore...luckily that won't be for a long time. However, I have stuck to my guns and she is not allowed on any furniture, after all she is a dog!

I am a member of that same club. Jason and I got a dog before we got married and she was our baby for 2 years, spoiled rotten! Now she's 11 years old and with 3 kids crawling all over her she probably wishes she was an only child again!

CC, maybe you should consult with Phil about your dog problem.

I have to agree with Page, our first dog was so loved. Now, the more children, the less attention for Pepper.

We had a dog that behaved too. Then we got Jake!

Question for Whit and Jake...what makes you think said dog is not on the furniture when you aren't looking? Dogs were blessed with incredible looks of innocence, and I believe they know what they are doing! Aunt Robin

Being Pet parents made me laugh. Whitney having limits made me laugh.
Jakes dad's comment made me laugh. It is funny and vague, I find myself wondering if the dog quit behaving after Jake was born or if they couldnt train Jake to behave as easily as they could train the dog?! haha

Just kidding Jake. You are without a doubt a very well mannered guy! ... Love ya!

Becky. You're reading too much into it. The dog died.
