Is this really so surprising? They are man's best friend after all. However, if your dog actually talks back to you - and not in a "go out and kill a bunch of people" Son of Sam sort of way - then you may very well be the Peter Griffin of your family unit. Or clinically insane. Either or. Bonus points if your dog looks like a cheap knock-off of Snoopy, is liberal to the core until a large sum of money is involved, and has been working on a novel for the past couple of years. Oh, and your dog may be frequently sauced also. You might want to look into that. Probably not good for his liver.
