You know you love your doodle when -

[Janie, Jackson and Jilly]

You're running out the door and blow a kiss and say 'I love you Baby!' and you hear your husband and daughter both yelling 'I love you too!' and only you know that you were talking to your doodle!

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

Oh that is so funny, Janie.  My husband has it figured out....he knows the "sweet talk" is meant for the Doods.
