Dog Mom's are so protective and caring 🐶🐕🥰🦮 | She's not spoiled at all

An informal and affectionate term for a dog lover that identifies as female and believes that her pets are “fur kids”. While some dog owners may never think of their dogs as their children, dog moms are an entirely different breed. Dog moms don’t just live with a dog, they think of their dogs as members of their immediate cross-species family, nurturing their “fur babies” like they are human crotch goblins.Show more

21 Signs You Might Be a Dog Mom (or Dog Dad)
1. Your parents refer to your dog as their “grandchild”
Even if you say this only jokingly – odds are you’re probably a dog mom. Double points if you do this even though you also have human children.

2. Your dog has a good side
If you have taken enough dog pictures that you know what are your pup’s best selfy angles, ever commissioned a custom dog portrait, visited a dog friendly photo studio, or even went so far as to tap a famous dog photographer to immortalize your pup – you’re probably a dog mom.

3. Corn chips make you sentimental
If a stroll through the snack aisle at your local grocer or the smell of a bowl of tortilla chips triggers fond memories of when you first brought your pup home – you’re probably a dog mom.

4. Your dog eats better than you do
If you’ve ever purchased premium dog food or treats for your pet, but you usually buy “store brand” food or plan meals around whatever is on sale when feeding yourself – you’re probably a dog mom.

5. You make your own dog treats
If you have a favorite dog biscuit recipe or take the time to dehydrate meat to make your own dog jerky treats – you’re probably a dog mom.

6. Your dog goes to daycare
If you drop your pup off at a dog spa or doggy day care on your commute to work, or if you hire a dog walker to play with your pup when you’re at the office – you’re probably a dog mom.

7. You have other children, but the dog is your favorite
If your dog is secretly (or not so secretly) your favorite – you’re probably a dog mom.

8. You make play dates for your dog
If your dog has a “best friend” or buddy that you regularly visit simply for your dog to hang out and play with – you’re probably a dog mom.

9. You’ve shown strangers pictures of your dog
If you have ever whipped out your phone to show total strangers cute puppy pictures – you’re probably a dog mom.

10. Your dog has their own Instagram account
If your dog has an active social media presence and their own Instagram followers (especially those that you’ve never met), despite not having any thumbs to type with – you’re probably a dog mom.

11. You give your dog presents
If you’ve celebrated your dog’s Gotcha Day or Birthday with a gift or bought something while out shopping for other things because you know your dog would absolutely love it – you’re probably a dog mom.

12. You have conversations with your dog
If you talk to your dog like they understand you – you’re probably a crazy dog lady (and a dog mom). That said, if you talk to your dog and they talk back you might just be crazy – and a dog mom.
