I talk to my dog while walking. “Do you want to go this way or that? Don’t go in there, that’s not our garden. Hey look, doggies! Shall we go and say hello? It’s ok, don’t be frightened, it’s a cement mixer, it won’t hurt you. Oh, are we going home now?”

Talking to your pet is supposed to be weird? Wait … am I weird?
My cat says not to worry-- it’s normal.
I talk to my animals a lot. Also inanimate objects. If I sit a bag on my car I may tell the soda not to roll around and point at it warningly.
Oh man, I have a constant dialogue with my dogs when we go for a walk. To be honest, I do a fair bit of talking to them at home too.
