    Owning a dog is the intersection between thinking dogs are the best, and actually having the time, energy and headspace to look after one.

    If dogs looked after themselves like cats do, I’d be inclined. But then they wouldn’t be dogs, I suppose.

      I like my dog’s energy because she motivates me to move at least a little bit each day. Of course I’m not gonna get a husky because no amount of motivation would let me keep up with them, but a good energy match in a dog is heaven to me.

      I like cats too, but I feel like I just don’t “get” them as intuitively.
