Dog ownership is obviously important to some folks given the heavy commitment for their care.

I am still puzzled by those dog owners thatwalk while they push their dog in a stroller
I think they just can't take the empty nest syndrome. The kids are gone. The couple find they don't have that much in common so the pets are used to fill the void. This may be a good solution. The shrinks say the divorce rate is fairly high for new empty nesters.
