Sentence: "The luxury-pet-services race is on all around the country, taking the anthropomorphizing of dogs and cats to new extremes."
Definition: anthropomorphism(noun):the attributing of human characteristics to gods, objects, etc.
My Sentence: Couples who own pets and have no children tend to see their animals in a anthropomorphism perspective by buying them gourmet treats, designer clothing, and spa treatments.
