When strangers ask me whether I have children, I always pause for a second before telling them that I don't.
I do this because I know, deep within my soul, they may look at me strangely if I tell them my child is a fluffy three-year-old Cavoodle named Darcy who likes to sniff other kids' butts.
Here are 7 very specific things millennial dog parents know to be true.
1. Your dog has better stuff than you do.
Darcy deserves the best. Just ask him and he'll... tell you.
That's why we were both excited when frank green launched their first ever Pet Collection of beautifully designed, customisable pet products, engineered to withstand the daily rough and tumble of our fur babies’ lives.
Darcy's new khaki collar and lead are making our daily walkies so much easier. The attachable poo bag holder and treat holder (matching because of course) are super fancy, and means Darcy always gets a treat when he's been a good boy. Darcy's also obsessed with his new squeaky toy and thinks he looks quite cool in his new bandana.
The range, which includes collars, leads, bowls, poo bag holders, squeaky toys and more, ticks all of Darcy's boxes: they're stylish, functional and made from planet-friendly materials.
Plus have a squiz at these colours! So fun!
