OPINION: I love my dog, but there's no way I'll be buying her a special outfit on National Dress Up Your Pet Day. She gets a coat in the winter, and that's it!
Let me first state for the record that I really like my dog, an 11-year-old cutie named Lulu. She plays a good game of fetch. She forces me to get a little more exercise with her constant need for walks. She has also mastered being house-trained .Not on your freaking life.
It’s all part of a trend to treat our pets like people. One study, from the Nielsen NLSN, -1.84% folks, noted that 95% of American pet owners consider their animals to be family members. . But I don’t need a study to tell me that: I just have to look at all the pet owners I know who are posting more pictures of their dogs on Instagram FB, +1.64% and the like than of their family.
But I think it’s important to distinguish the kind of relationship you have with your dog versus with the humans in your life. When the pandemic eased over last summer and fall, I spent plenty of time with friends I hadn’t seen in months, catching up on our personal and professional lives and just laughing ourselves silly. And I look forward to similar gatherings when the omicron wave passes.
