Well I think this is fairly common, people treating animals like people.
They are so easy to get attached to and some people just want more and more.
But you have to draw the line somewhere and you have to remember that they are just animals.
But its fine to like them.

There's a reason dog's have been 'Man's best friend' forever. They are respectful, obedient, loyal, affectionate, consistent. Other pets, too.
It's easy to get attached to them emotionally, they give what they get, and if you're sensitive enough and aware enough to give them what they need and treat them the way they need to be treated, they return it. What's not to adore there, so what that they're a different species!
The task is to recognize that the need to be emotionally attached is a universal need, and if you are able to establish that with a critter, then you can do that with a member of your own species. And, you can take them into a restaurant (amongst other places and things!)

I h ave three huskies and I treat them nicely, but not really like humans. I love them really I do, but they are bed hoggers and beggers. Plus they love to bark, so i get mad at them some times.

This is completely normal. In fact in some cases, they might be the only true friends. That is what pets are for anyways. To love and play.
