Hmm, I’d much rather have a robot to feed my dogs, control their access to the backyard and scoop their poop.

  Why do you have a dog? I ended up in the situation that I have two cats, but my wife's allergic. They are now restricted to one largish room and the garden. It's a bit of a a pain in the arse for me to take care of them this way, but if I were to automate this, that wouldn't help much. Every morning I awake to them crying for attention, and I have to go in and coddle them. Turn them upside down, rub their bellies. They even enjoy it when I clean their toilet, rubbing up against my legs and purring as I do it. Automating the task of taking care of them would save me exactly zero time, and only enable me to be a worse cat owner.

    > Why do you have a dog? I ask myself this question every day :) I rescued them from the shelter and love them dearly, but they are a handful!
