    Funny I should read your message today - I'm away on a business trip, called home this morning - my husband held the phone for my dog Abigail to listen to my voice. I think I miss Abigail more than I miss my husband LOL

    Who else admits to talking to their pets on the telephone?

    Any funny stories?

    When my daughter was ill with cancer and we stayed at Ronald McDonald house in Houston she would talk to our boxer every day.

    I use speaker when my DH calls when on the road. Both dogs and cats look my way and try to figure where he is.

    Of course! We don't have human kids and the dog is as close to a kid as I will have and when I must travel I miss him like crazy so when I talk to DH I talk to Thor too.
