  You know you have a BIG dog when...

  * The sound of running water makes you jump up and yell, "OUTSIDE!"

  * You tell your dog to sit, and he backs up until he finds a chair.

  * It takes 3 people to get your dog on the scale at the vets.

  * You walk your dog and everyone knows him by name, but you have no idea who these people are.

  * You carry a tape measure with you when shopping for a new vehicle.

  * You have given up on water dishes and you just use the bathtub.

  * You've learned to force a smile when asked "do you have a saddle for that thing?"

  * Your veterinarian has been able to put in a swimming pool, build a large home, buy jet skis and a vacation home in Florida.

  * You're holding him straddled between your legs when the doorbell rings and you find yourself quickly transported straight to the front door.

  that's pretty funny. i've actually found myslef in the position where i need to by a SUV or truck so that I will be able to transport my dog around when he is full grown. as it is it's hard to carry him around in my M3 and he's only 6 months old.

  I just sent this to my friend who has THREE Weimaraners and an Irish Setter.

  From my (oft painful!) experience of them, I'd say you know you have a big dog when you have to peel your visitors off the front of the house!

  You know you have a big dog when:

  *50# bags of dog food go on sale and you wish them came in a bigger bag

  *you take tall kitchen bags with you on the morning 'dump' walk

  *your kids no longer argue with the dog over who gets the recliner

  *you announce, "it's just me, boy" when going to the kitchen in the middle of the night for a drink of water

  *you remember to feed the dog two hours before your guests arrive to reduce the possibility of a 'natural gas' incident

  *if the toilet seat falls on the dog's head when he tries to sneak a drink, it's the toilet seat you worry about

  *bathing the dog is an event to which tickets are sold to the neighbors

  *if you are in the drivers seat, and the dog is in the passenger seat, people following you will notice that the passenger side is lower

  *you wonder why Marmaduke is so skinny

  *when you trip and land on the dog, he still does not move

  *when no neighbor kids pick on yours

  *when you complain about poorly made furniture
