So you're a dog lover. You watch a cute puppy video on Youtube and fall asleep in your big, comfy bed and that's nice. A dog owner or a parent, though, has less time for such videos, and even less space in bed - it belongs to the dog now (it should also be noted that the reality of sleeping with your pooch is way less cute than you might imagine.) And it's just one of the many differences between loving and having dogs seen in funny drawings by Kelly Angel.

Are you a dog lover or a dog parent? Vote for and comment on the cute drawings that you can relate to your everyday problems as a dog person the most! One thing is for sure – even if the experiences differ, pet dogs bring endless love and joy to our lives in any case! If you like what you see, have a look at other Angel's funny illustrations where she depicts the way you see yourself vs. the way your dog sees you.

My dog goes under the covers and leans against me. If I am close to the edge he forces me out of bed. He only weighs 14 lbs but feels like 50 lbs of dead weight

I only get the whole bed to myself now because my boy is old and arthritic and can't get on the bed anymore. I miss him taking up 80% of the space!

    Hey, I say the same things to both my dog and my cat frequently every day. I'm the template for Dog and Cat Parent.

    Nope. My dog is an angel 99% of the time. When I was on crutches a few weeks ago, she was even better behaved. When I had to get up in the middle of the night to pee, she heard me stir and get up and she would go from her spot in the middle of the floor to her bed. She'd wait til I was back in bed before she got back up to lay in the middle of the floor again. She's very considerate. Also, she'd wait til I woke up in the morning before stirring and wouldn't head to the door until I was up She's normally very good but when I was on crutches, she was even better

    2:30 a.m.-Hey, wake up! I'm going to make you think I need to go to the bathroom but what I really want to do is stand in the yard to make sure there are no squirrels or cats there. 3:30 a.m.- Hey, wake up! Yeah...I have to pee!

    That's our Tinker! She'll need to go out to check out the yard in the middle of the night...no barking, no running around, just sit on the patio and look all around.

    I turn the channel or my husband turns the channel while I run out of the room with my fingers in my ears and humming loudly. My heart just hurts if I'm caught unawares.

    We're recently married and got a dog. One of our biggest pet peeves is when people call themselves dog parents. We think it belittles the title of parent https://marriedbeforegraduation.blogspot.com/2018/10/we-got-dog.html

    Parent. Mostly if i'm scouring the internet for dog friendly places, it's for hotels at dog show venues when we're headed to an obedience event.
