    You think you might have nice clothes somewhere but you can't really remember as you live in black trousers and jeans, dark fleeces, hiking socks and wellies or walking boots now.

    Oh....and you always manage to pull out some crumbs of treats when you get your money out your pocket in a shop.

    The only snacks around the house are dog treats ( and they taste good with beer )

    ...every single pocket in every single jacket has dog kibble/treats/hard cheese in it....

    ... you spend more time planning where your dog is going to stay while you go on holidays than where you will...

    You are in a supermarket shopping for food & are inexplicibly drawn to the dog treat/toy aisle.

    Then all the way home feeling warm pleasure at the fun the new toy will bring...puppy gets new toy before shopping properly packed away... ::)

    ... you pull your jeans on back-to-front then, when you go for your morning wee, you realise your knickers are on inside out.
