If there's anything left over after we have bought our food and paid the bills I start looking at buying more nice things for the dogs. All of our clothes etc are bought at the cheap shops like Matalan and Primark whlie allof there stuff is bought either online (made to measure) or from pets@home etc.

I think it's dreadful that you spent £20 on yourself that you could quite easily have spent on your lovely dogs. PMSL

LOL! Same as me! The dogs get the best of the best, then I get myself basics. The dogs get top notch meat, more coats and jumpers than I have, I mean we all know dogs need a reindeer outfit in the winter, in my porch the dogs have their own cabinet full of shampoos, brushes, coats, jumpers, t-shirts, medicines, toys, bandannas, leads, collars, so many comfy beds...in my wardrobe I have, 3 t-shirts I wear for dog walking, one set of jeans and 2 sets of shorts, made from old jeans so I can spend more money on the dogs...oh and a hairbrush....the dogs have 5

Lol It's really very addictive isn't it!
I got a bonus recently and spent two thirds of it on Prince and the Piggies! I would have spent more but I ended up having to buy some jogging bottoms as Prince has wrecked every pair of trousers I own by swinging with his teeth to the bottoms of them

But do I dither or what over what to buy myself! Any time I'm online and I think maybe I'll get myself such and such, I end up on Pet Planet or something

Just makes me happy buying nice things for my animals

i cant believe you spent all that money on yourself and only a measly 2quid on the dogs!! Def a bad, bad owner!!
*hits with rolled up newspaper*

Seriously though I think we are probably all as bad as each other.

Yesterday in town I bought doggy treats, a new skineez toy, a catnip banana, some fishy cat treats and some bloodworms for the fish.
Now I have to go back and raid Wilkinsons for their rodent toys and treats coz otherwise it wont be fair!! (mind you I dont get anything, do I??

)
Oh, the snakes get nothing.....coz I just spent a small fortune on them on line for their new vivs!!)
