I think we spent more on the dogs at Christmas than on ourselves (well, maybe I exaggerate a little)! The greyhounds got retired racing numbers to wear in parades, Pup got a special new collar; hey each got a new fleece toy and a new chewy bone toy; they got special treats from the pet store...
What's funny is that, since neither set of "grandparents" has any human grandkids yet, they spoil the dogs: between the two pairs of grandparents, the dogs got three boxes of treats each, chewy treats, and a new toy apiece!
Now if only they'd pay us back by posing for a Christmas card photo!
