that's why i prefer cats
by the time a dog turns 10 you know in the back of your head that it doesn't have much time, but with cats that time takes longer to come

t. cat survived for 24 years. but it hated me since i was born and almost never allowed me to pet him so i wasn't particularly sad.

I mean they've been genetically programmed to be your slave. Whereas all humans are in it for themselves, dogs literally exist to love you slavishly and support you in any conceivable way that they can. It's what they exist to do.

So, obviously, yes.

>border collie
They are the smartest breed, hyperenergetic and owning one is like a second job. You have to vigorously work out their minds and bodies on a daily basis or they will rapidly turn into neurotic engines of mass material destruction. Some kind of work or training routine like agility, herding, or etc is almost mandatory for them.

If you can handle the requirements though, they are probably the most rewarding breed to own. Just because you know you earned that relationship and trust, vs getting a golden retriever or something which is like playing dog: the game with cheat codes on.

Just depends if you want to feel like you earned it or not, really. No right answer.

I remember one day I had a very rough day. I got fired from a job. Girlfriend fighting with me. I was depressed.

Devastated.

Then my dog came to me to play around with me happily; not caring shit about world problem.

This was the only thing that improved my mood that day.

>> No.14296540

No, dogs are pack animals that have developed a dependent relationship with humans. They have evolved to put on a show because they know you'll give them food and shelter, humans are the only animals that humanize traits of other species, your dog is a dumb animal that couldn't give two shits about you... it's all an act.

>but muh Japanese dog story!
Irrelevant, it's an evolved trait, the dog had a mutant gene that was extra attached to his meal ticket. A dog raised in captivity sees living a life in the wild as a death sentence... which it often is, so they'll occasionally hold on to their host for dear life.

befriending an animal that is biologically compelled to be subservient and submissive to you, the provider, is pretty bluepilled

are they really your best friend if they don't have any choice but to be your best friend?

keeping an animal in a small yard just so you can get some good feels when it wags its tail at you is pretty pathetic

now if you befriend a wild animal and keep up the relationship, now that is fucking based as fuck

I grew a disdain for dogs because for years I was living with someone who had a bunch of the most ill-behaved, untrained, annoying dogs I've EVER experienced, and the person did nothing about it except exacerbate their annoying habits by rewarding bad behavior. Now that I've been away from there for some time I'm mostly over it though it still haunts me to some small degree. But I like dogs that are well trained, good dogs. I'd say bad dogs can just fuck right off but sadly enough you have to just blame the stupid owners. They really have no business owning a dog that they don't even have time for.

I had a border collie mix growing up, best dog. He was mixed with a springer spaniel and was actually very calm. Could stay at home all day if you needed him to but also loved to get outside. Saved me from a pitbull once by getting it to back off when I was little. Was also a natural hunting dog when we finally got around to using him as one when he was older. Lived 16 years.
