Amy:??I have a puppy at home, and I am really worried about spoiling her, you know? Nobody wants to spoil their pet.
Ella:??I don?t know, my parents spoil their dog like crazy. She only drinks Evian water.
Amy:??No, you?re kidding!
Ella:??No, no.
Amy:??Well that?s really over the top.
Ella:??It is. I mean, what kind of things do you do with your dog?
Amy:??I definitely?she never is allowed to have people food. She definitely drinks tap water. And I feel like I give her a reasonable number of treats, and she has to do tricks and everything before she gets them. I think I mostly just spoil her with love and affection. Like I just constantly, when I?m at home, just want to be petting her and cuddling her and stuff because she?s so cute and soft.
Ella:??That sounds reasonable. You know, you have a pet, it?s kind of there for emotional comfort. I don?t know, I feel like my parents take it to another level with Coco.
Amy:??Is their dog obedient?
Ella:??Kind of, but my parents take her everywhere.
Amy:??So do you think she?s spoiled rotten, or do you think she?s still a good dog?
Ella:??Definitely spoiled rotten, but overall a good dog.
