I haven't slept 8 hours more than 3 or 4 times since I have dogs. I need more than the 6 or 7 I get of sleep because of them, my mental and physical health suffers for this.
We can't go on vacation, or even have a night out somewhere else, without planning and paying for them to be hosted somewhere.
I love my dogs, but I'm looking forward with both dread and hope for the days they will no longer be around.
A dog that could be turned off would be much better in this regard.
- warabe 3y agoAgreed. I have a shiba dog, and he is super cute! However, I have to take him out for walk more than an hour EverySingleDay. So, I have to spend more than 400 hours a year, i.e. 4000 hours for ten years. To be honest, spending 4000 hours is enough for making you a semi-professional in any fields. So, I don't recommend having a dog, unless you are literally CRAZY about dogs.
- lostlogin 3y agoThis must be a breed thing? Our rescue mutt can be left in (we block the couch or the little terror sleeps on it), or left out outside (where he pretends to shiver). He can stay inside for 12 hours at a time without issues. He would be fine at a kennel.
- lodovic 3y agoI doubt that I could love a robot dog as much as a real live one. You can't replace a child or a spouse with a robot either.
