Do you remember when you first entered the world as a dog mom?
It was like opening the door to a whole new dimension of life, wasn't it? Here we've put together a list of 10 things we never thought would become part of our daily routine before we got our furry friend.
Maybe you can recognize some of them?
Join us on a fun journey through the crazy, unexpected, and heartwarming moments that come with life as a dog mom.
1. Become an expert in dog hair
Who would have thought that you would start choosing colors for furniture and clothes that matched the color of your dog's fur?
2. Make dog-friendly vacation plans
My summer vacation this year? Definitely one where the dog can come along. Preferably somewhere we don't have to drive too far and where there are dog-friendly activities.
3. Speaking in dog language
Who would have thought that you would find yourself? talking to your dog in a voice that's a mix between a baby and a cartoon character? But hey, it works, right?
4. Letting your dog occupy the bed
You swore it would never happen, but now you're lying on the edge of the bed while your dog spreads out like a little emperor in the middle of the bed.
5. Taking your dog's Instagram more seriously than your own
Who cares how many likes your own photo gets when your dog has an Instagram account that's about to beat an influencer? #DogMomLife
6. Celebrate the dog's birthday
Celebrating your dog's birthday wasn't something you expected to be a family event. Suddenly, it's a tradition with cake, bubbles, and lots of dog-sized gifts.
7. Canceling dinner plans because they are dog-free
Because you'd rather have an evening together and have fun with your four-legged friend
8. Discover that your dog easily spends more money than you
e.g. on dog massage, physiotherapy and behavioral therapy (insert the rest yourself...)
9. Add your dog's name
on short trips, because the dog is also part of the family
10. Finding old treat leftovers and doggy bags in all your jacket pockets at work
(unless of course you have a DogCoach jacket or sweater with a removable treat pocket which solves that problem) ...
