I see. For me it has become something I need to do. I will just feel like shit the day I can't ;)
im currently a dog one. I have forgotten but she lets me know.
I can easily imagine that and I would love to be able to say I am too :)
Most of my life, I lived with one dog or more... When my mast dog passed away, some 20 years ago, we moved in this big city, in a very small flat... a dog is not even a realistic option here. Even less so that my spouse are getting old and I would worry what will happen to our dog after we pass.
honestly given my wifes and my ages and our condo we have to big a dog. I was more against it but its hard to fight something you don't really want to do. Its like fighting to eat healthier food or watching less tv. Our current dog should be smaller and we really should not get one after her given our ages.
Just so you know: we have not owned a tv since 2000. And, as much as possible, we eat healthy food. I mean, no industrially processed (and over packaged) junk/industrial fast or not fast food. Even our bread is handmade (not by us, we would not have enough room, but by the small local bakery that makes everything the good old way) ;)
I considered a smaller dog but since we're both not in the best health... I just can't. At least, I can regularly see dogs at the park, and sometimes I will pet them.
