Puppy is my child. Coworkers, deal with it.
Despite referring to Puppy (mostly in my head, mind you) as my kid, I promise to refrain from the following behavior:
- posting ultrasound / the-second-after-birth pictures of Puppy on facebook
- entertaining (read: horrifying) my coworkers with Puppy's successful house training stories....or accidents
- giving the hour-by-hour details of Puppy's twenty-four hour bug
- bringing sick Puppy in to work because Doggy Day Care won't take 'em until 1 day without a fever
- discussing every behavioral milestone of Puppy's
(no offense if you have done any of the above. I guess my dog just isn't "child" enough to me to blast facebook/work/the bus with it.)

i think my biological clock actually turned off after finding this site.
People at my university bring their dogs to work, and 3 PM is puppy playtime out on the lawn. It's pretty adorable.
(Sure, they put up NO DOGS ALLOWED signs, but those were promptly removed by offended faculty/staff/students.)
I'm waiting to see if any of the people who jumped all over one blogger for writing about her cats will attack you for writing about Puppy. Is there species-ism in the academic blog world?
