The notion of loving too much is an intriguing concept. What if devoting your entire existence to one person or purpose becomes the defining characteristic of your life? When the first thought that crosses your mind upon waking and the last lingering thought before sleep revolves around this singular focus. You become consumed by it, breathing for its very essence. This unwavering dedication is not unlike the fervor many people share with their pets. For instance, dog lovers – yes, I’m one of them! – can’t help but be utterly enthralled by their canine companions. It’s as if our furry friends have an innate ability to sense and reciprocate our love. Perhaps they were created to adore us, but they do an exemplary job of following their instincts.

Dog Lover aka Crazy Dog Mom

For many people, dogs are more than just pets – they’re beloved family members that bring endless joy and companionship to our lives. If you find yourself falling head over paws in love with your furry friend, or if you’re simply a dog enthusiast at heart, you’re not alone. In fact, it’s perfectly okay to be completely obsessed with dogs! After all, they are often referred to as ‘fur- babies’ for a reason. So, whether you identify as a dog crazy individual or just appreciate the unique bond that forms between humans and canines, this article is designed to help you tap into your inner dog lover – without worrying about what others might think.

Your Dog Sleeps in your Bed with You

Snuggled up under the blankets with your furry companion, it’s no secret that allowing dogs on the furniture is a common practice among dog owners. However, when they’re invited to join you in bed, things get a bit more complicated. Those tiny particles of dirt and debris between their toes can leave behind an unwelcome residue on your sheets. And if you thought morning breath was pungent, just wait until the fumes from a sleepy pup hit you. Despite these potential drawbacks, for those who can tolerate it, there’s no denying the joy that comes with sharing a bed with your beloved canine.

While it’s hard to resist the allure of our furry friends, I’m guilty of indulging in their charm as well. It’s not uncommon for pet owners to be captivated by their pets’ every move, from a gentle yawn to an exaggerated sneeze. The joy and innocence that radiates from them is truly unparalleled, making it challenging to tear one’s gaze away. Why bother looking at anything else when the world’s most adorable creatures are right before your eyes?

When You’re Out, Your Dog is Always on Your Mind

Leaving your furry companion behind can be a truly distressing experience. The ache in your heart only grows stronger with each passing moment as you’re consumed by an overwhelming desire to reconnect with them. I’m guilty of this myself, spending the entire trip wondering what my dog is up to and if they’re missing me just as much. It’s a bittersweet reminder that our canine friends are never truly out of sight, but always on our minds.

You Have a Doggie-Cam at Home

As you’re on-the-go with your furry friend by your side, staying connected becomes a top priority. You want to know what they’re up to at all times – have they snagged their lunch already? Where’s their favorite snoozing spot of the day? It’s only natural that you’d want to be in the loop and keep tabs on their daily escapades. And let’s be real, when you start chatting with them through your device, it’s a sign that you’re a dedicated dog parent – no apologies necessary!

Two Words: Dog Clothes


When it comes to dressing up our canine companions, we’re not limited to seasonal accessories or practical attire like coats and hoodies. No, the possibilities are much broader than that. From bowties to onesies with…ahem…interesting design choices, hats, Halloween costumes, and even dresses – yes, dog dresses – the options can get quite creative. And for those who take their dog’s fashion sense to new heights, we say: welcome to crazy dog mom territory! You’re in good company.

Sharing Milestones

When it comes to our furry friends, we often find ourselves celebrating even the smallest milestones. Whether it’s a new trick or a significant birthday, we can’t help but feel proud of their accomplishments. However, there’s a fine line between showing enthusiasm and going overboard. For instance, posting an annual photo with your pup at their big birthday bash might be excessive. But celebrating each milestone along the way? That’s just part of being a devoted dog parent. And let’s be real, when that adorable ball of fluff is growing up before our eyes, it’s hard not to get carried away.

You Share Food

While humans often gaze down at their plates, awaiting a tasty morsel to drop in, dog enthusiasts take it a step further. Normal dog lovers are thrilled when their pets show interest in what’s on the plate. But true dog moms go beyond mere enthusiasm – they willingly share bites with their canine companions or even create a makeshift dog plate! A revealing question to gauge one’s devotion is this: would you allow your dog to lick your ice cream cone? The answer says it all about the level of dog-mom commitment.

Your Dog Goes by Many Names

While a dog’s given name may be familiar to those who know him well, it’s not uncommon for pets to have a multitude of nicknames assigned by their owners. In fact, you might find yourself with an impressive collection of monikers for your furry friend, each one tailored to the unique situation or quirk that arises throughout the day. From playful affectionate terms to absurd labels born from specific behaviors or habits, these nicknames can serve as a reflection of the special bond between you and your dog.

While dogs may not have the same level of enthusiasm as humans when it comes to traveling, many pet owners find themselves eager to share their adventures with their furry companions. This can manifest in a range of ways, from bringing your dog along on car rides or runs to going the extra mile and ensuring that every outing is dog-friendly. In fact, some dog lovers are so devoted to sharing their lives with their pets that they’ll even go so far as to create custom dog purses – a testament to just how much joy these companions bring to our daily routines. And for those who have found love, the quest for dog-friendly date ideas is an important consideration in determining whether a relationship has the potential to be long-term.

Two Words: Doggie Instagram

Your pet’s social media presence is undoubtedly one of the most engaging platforms, with you likely posting more frequently than your own profile. The captions written in your furry friend’s voice are a testament to their unique personality. It’s not uncommon for pets to have a larger following than their owners! As you’re fortunate enough to share your life with such an charismatic influencer, it’s essential to reciprocate the affection and attention they bring. For example, you can check out my Instagram account, Beau_The_Brittany, where I share updates about my own beloved companion.

No Other Dog can Compare

It’s only natural that other pets might seem cute in comparison, but when it comes to your own furry companion, there’s no one else quite like them. The unique blend of personality traits, quirks, and physical characteristics makes your dog truly special. While you might adore dogs in general, the bond you share with your own pet is unparalleled. As a self-proclaimed crazy dog mom and dog lover, you’re not alone in your enthusiasm! For those who want to be great dog parents, the key is to give their heart fully to their pets.
