I think it's more about explaining our emotions in terms that we know. I know Fido isn't "my baby" and that I'm not his "mommy" but its the closet words we can get to using that describe our love and attachment for that animal.
Now it's definitely strange to see a dog being walked in a stroller, feasting on ice cream with shades on, but describing human characteristics to vocalize the love for a pet is not abnormal.
IIN that it bothers me when people impose human emotions onto animals?
