...when you routinely carry towels in your car, because you never know when your lab will find some water, somewhere, the muddier the better.
...when you spend a previously-thought-insane amount on the best vacuum possible.

-when your dream job is one where you can take your dog to work every day

. . . . when your sitting at the computer, reading this thread, and your feet are warmed by a sweet furry body.
. . . . when you walk through a room and hold your breath waiting until your sleeping senior takes a breath.
. . . . when snoring wakes you up at night and you just smile.

When you get a simple grin on your face watching them sleep.
When you have a box on you deck that has about 37 retrieving toys for the dogs, and nothing for the humans.
You know more about dog food and nutrition than you know about human food and nutrition.
And the same goes for poo.

When you and your partner will call eachother during the day to discuss poop consistencies (this mostly applies during a food change, illness, etc.) The odd looks I get from my coworkers when I am on the phone in the hallway asking Jake "well was it soft serve, or like liquidy, or nice and hard?
