Yesterday, our giant hundred pound German Shepherd, Schultz, came up to me wanting a little attention. He stuck his enormous head in my lap and looked at me. That meant, "pet me." So I did.
My daughter walked into the room. "Awww," she said. "Your baby loves you!"
I looked at the big hairy thing. And then I looked at my daughter. "Schultz is not my baby!"
"Yes, he is, Mom."
I shook my head. "I have no recollection of ever having given birth to this thing!"
My daughter grinned. "But he looks just like you. He's a hairy cutie-pie!"
I see no fur on your face in your profile photo...
ReplyDeleteIt must be invisible!
Delete" I have no recollection of ever having given birth to this thing!".. . Lol! Sherry, that was hilarious!
ReplyDelete'Tis the truth!
DeleteAs the saying goes, "From the mouth of babes..." Heh heh.
ReplyDeleteAll I can say, is I hope I don't look like a dog!
Deletelol maybe he snuck out in the night?
ReplyDeleteMaybe!
Deleteas long as the smell is not the thing you share :)
ReplyDeleteEwww! I hope not! I hate the way dogs smell!
DeleteI wish I could be as good looking as my dogs.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I have news for you. You're better looking!
DeleteDid you remind her that if he was your baby, he was her brother? :)
ReplyDeleteShe already acknowledged that Schultz is her brother. That is seriously messed up!
DeleteHA! Well, ya know, they DO say pets and their owners tend to resemble each other. (I'm glad we don't have snakes!)
ReplyDeleteSo they say. Although I have a hard time believing I look like a German Shepherd!
DeleteDo the kids tell him to go to mama, thats what my kids tell our dogs.
ReplyDeleteApparently I'm also daddy!
Yes. They always say, "Where's Mama? Go find the Mama!"
DeleteHaha! I guess that's why they call them our "fur babies."
ReplyDeleteApparently!
DeleteLOL, the things children say.
ReplyDeleteYou never know what's going to come out of their mouths!
DeleteMy mom calls her dogs "the children". Now that she lives with her boyfriend and his dog also, it's "our children" (referring to my mom and her boyfriend, not me and her). It's weird.
ReplyDeleteI could never think of any animal as a child!
Delete:-)
ReplyDeleteMore craziness at my pad!
DeleteI have a Shiba Inu, an Italian Greyhound, a chihuahua, and a toy poodle, and frankly, I don't want to know which one looks like me. When it comes to that whole "after a while the dog starts to resemble the owner" thing I feel like there's no winning that battle.
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a mix! Yeah, I'd have to agree, it would be hard to figure out which one you resemble. ;0)
DeleteUs parents need to take compliments from the kids when we can get 'em. My wife insists that all the dogs are her babies!
ReplyDeleteI'm not so great with dogs so I'd be the last person to make any sense of your daughter's observation. But since it's your daughter's, then maybe it's a compliment :)
ReplyDeleteHaha! Maybe!
DeleteHmmm... Mayhaps you will need to update your profile photo?
ReplyDeleteHaha! Right. That picture really isn't me. I have pointy ears that stick straight up, a hairy face, and very large teeth!
DeleteUhm, what?? LOL! :D
ReplyDeleteYou're so funny. I miss reading your posts. :)
ReplyDeleteSo funny . . . :)
ReplyDeleteThat is adorable. And people do say pets tend to look like their owners. BTW...I love your dog's name. :D
