One of my coworkers recently got a new puppy. Another coworker recently found a lost dog and is trying to advertise that she found him (but also really hopes he doesn't get claimed so she can keep him).

Dogs are cool. I love my dog. I've loved every dog we've ever had.

But! I don't turn every single conversation inevitably to a discussion of my dog. I've been at work for 15 minutes and we've already had to talk about both of them. I mentioned a knitting project I'm working on and one of them immediately pivoted that to a discussion of their dog. ("Oh, I'd love to find more time for crafts but, you know, I'm just so preoccupied with my puppy!")

If I have to have another conversation about either of these dogs, I'm going to scream.

I appreciate your icon and sympathize heavily with the overwhelming focus of the conversations.

It should hopefully calm down once they get over the "new shiny" stage.

Augh. They do eat lives, don't they?
