    Awwwww that’s sad. I think our dog could be a handful, but he gets 3 or 4 walks every day, and play time, and some of those walks involve zoomies (I’m not a runner, but I imagine the neighbors are all used to seeing me run with the dog, just trying to burn off his energy).

    So he tends to spend much of his time just lounging around the house. If my wife is watching TV, it’s a pretty good bet he’s going to be cuddled up with her.

    He’s a really happy dog. Loves everyone and everything.

    That said, I’ve already decided we’re not adopting another one. I love him, but I also do most of the work - feeding him, walking him, etc. I also take care of the cats. Maybe I’ll feel differently now that I’ve retired and have more time, but before that, I was overwhelmed with all of the chores in the house.
