My dog Terry is literally a member of the family. Nearly addresses the dog as if he were a person. My mom buys him gourmet dog food, like chicken pot pie and beef wellington, which look like they could be served in a restaurant. As a member of the family, Terry naturally receives presents on his birthday and major holidays.
As you can probably deduce, people in the family aren’t willing to give Terry just any old dog toys. My mom seeks out premium-style dog toys and accessories, a ritual I am sure Terry neither understands nor appreciates. When the holidays roll around I keep in mind my family’s infatuation with our dog and seek out personalized pet lover gifts for them—I know they enjoy receiving the gifts more than the dog.
