Welcome to the Listening Time Podcast.

Hey everybody, this is Connor and you're listening to episode 148 of the Listening Time Podcast.

Thank you all for listening.

Today I want to talk about a topic that I've already talked about

but a long time ago in one of the first episodes,

and I also talked a little bit about it in a bonus episode,

if I'm not mistaken, and that is the topic of dogs.

I think in the normal episode that I recorded a long time ago,

I talked about pets in general, but today I want to talk about dogs specifically.

When I was trying to think of ideas for this episode, I saw a dog walk by my window,

and so that's the topic that came to mind, so we're going to talk about it today.

And I know a lot of you are dog lovers.

I'm going to give you a spoiler alert.

A spoiler alert is an alert that you give people

when you're going to already reveal some important information to them at the very beginning.

and so it might kind of ruin the story because you already know what I'm gonna say.

So people say this when they are gonna talk about a new movie that they saw recently.

They might say, hey, this is a spoiler alert,

so don't listen if you don't want me to ruin the movie for you, and then they'll talk about something in the movie.

So just a spoiler alert, I don't really like dogs that much,

but I'll explain myself, and I know that most of you probably like dogs,

so you're gonna want to hear my explanation, but we'll talk about that soon.

Alright, let's get started.

Alright, let's talk about dogs.

Now that I'm recording this, I can see that this is the perfect episode for today,

because my neighbor's dog is barking.

He just stopped, but he might start again,

and normally I would just edit that out, but today, since the topic is dogs,

if he barks, I'm probably just gonna leave that in,

and you can just enjoy the background barking as I talk about dogs.

So let me talk very briefly about my history with dogs.

My family had a lot of dogs when I was growing up.

I think we had a total of seven different dogs.

So I have a lot of history with dogs and I've I've had some interesting dogs.

One of them, he's not mine,

he's my sister's, but you still live with us and he's still alive.

He's a pretty interesting dog because we're pretty sure that he's part coyote.

He's half coyote, I think.

The word coyote refers to the animal that kind of looks like a wolf,

but it's smaller and lives in desert areas.

So this dog that is still alive,

he was rescued from an area where it's very common for dogs to breed with coyotes.

The word breed, when used as a verb like this, refers to animals having babies.

Okay, so in that area, many coyotes and dogs breed,

and so there are these hybrid dogs that are part dog and part coyote.

And I can't say for sure,

but I would guess that this dog that my sister has is part coyote.

It looks like a coyote,

it acts like a coyote sometimes and a coyote dog hybrid expert once told us

that he was sure that our dog was part coyote

so we assume that he's part coyote so that's pretty interesting

and another interesting dog that we had for many years was an Australian Shepherd which are sometimes just called Aussies.

This Aussie was really smart.

She was an extremely intelligent dog and sometimes that was a problem.

She was too intelligent and she was able to do certain things

that we didn't think she could do and so that once in a while was a problem for us.

I remember a couple instances of that and the same thing has happened with the coyote dog.

He's really smart and he's also used his intelligence to get into trouble before.

But that Australian Shepherd that we had was one of the smartest dogs I've ever encountered.

By the way, we can say that you encounter something

or someone to say that you have had an experience with that thing.

So that dog we had was one of the smartest that I've ever encountered.

And one other interesting one, another interesting dog that we had,

was this really small white mutt.

The word mutt is kind of a not very nice term to describe a mixed breed dog.

So it's not purebred, meaning its two parents weren't of the same breed,

as we say, the same type.

So this dog was a mutt and not a very beautiful mutt.

and she was really small and what was interesting about her was

that she was very portable I'll say portable means

that something can be taken and transported very easily

so I remember my dad just carrying her on his shoulder almost like a scarf.

He would throw her over his shoulder and walk around the city with her, and she would just chill there on his shoulder.

We can use the verb chill like this to mean that someone just hangs out in a peaceful way.

They're not really doing a lot.

They're just sitting there or whatever.

So she would just chill on his shoulder as he would walk around and go different places,

and one time I took her on a stand-up paddleboard with me on the water here in San Diego.

I was doing this stand-up paddle sport where you stand on that paddleboard and you go out

onto the water.

I did that with this dog with me.

So she was standing on this board with me in the bay on the water.

So that was probably my best memory of her doing that stand-up paddling with her.

So she was very portable, so it was interesting to take her to some different places.

So that's my history with dogs in terms of dogs that I've had.

And I need to say that throughout my childhood and early adulthood, I never liked cats.

And I always thought that dogs were better.

However, recently, in the last five years or so, my opinion has changed a little bit.

I actually appreciate cats a lot more now than I used to, and I'm allergic to cats.

I can't spend time in an area where there's a cat.

However, when I see that my neighbor has a cat instead of a dog,

I actually prefer that more now.

100

And let me tell you why.

101

So when I lived in Mexico for some years,

102

I had to deal with a lot of dogs barking.

103

And it's funny I say that because,

104

as I mentioned, my neighbor's dog was just barking earlier when I was recording.

105

I don't think he'll bark anymore now hopefully.

106

But yeah, it's funny that that happened because this is what I dealt with for years in Mexico.

107

My neighbor's dogs would bark all day long.

108

I'm exaggerating of course, but sometimes it seemed like I would just hear barking all day no matter where I lived.

109

It didn't matter which apartment I lived in.

110

I lived in multiple apartments, but there would always be barking dogs.

111

And when you have a podcast like mine,

112

this can be very frustrating when you want to record and you need silence,

113

but the dog next door won't be quiet.

114

You can imagine how many times I got frustrated

115

when trying to record podcast episodes

116

and I had to wait for the dog to stop barking

117

and sometimes I would wake up really early to record before there was any noise from the dog or anyone else.

118

So that was always really frustrating for me.

119

And not only that, but I also lived the last year

120

and a half of my time in Mexico with a baby boy.

121

And it was very frustrating,

122

very annoying when dogs would bark loudly and wake my son up.

123

I hated that.

124

I would always get frustrated when that happened because my son was just a baby and needed to sleep,

125

but some dog or something would wake him up.

126

I definitely didn't like that, and just in general, I would want to enjoy some peace and quiet,

127

and just in general,

128

these barking dogs would always interrupt the peace and quiet

129

that we had for short periods of time

130

and then the barking would start and not just barking there were motorcycles

131

and car horns and things like that of course

132

but you get my point I'm someone that appreciates the quiet

133

when I'm trying to work or when my son is sleeping

134

and so it was always annoying to have to deal with that.

135

And there were some other things that made me stop liking dogs as much when I lived in Mexico.

136

Another thing was that there was dog poop everywhere all over the city on the sidewalk.

137

It was annoying to always have to try to avoid stepping on it

138

and I'm sure a lot of you agree with me

139

that it's not very nice to see that on the ground all over the place.

140

So I didn't like that.

141

Another thing I didn't like was when

142

we would be walking on the sidewalk

143

and suddenly some vicious dog would poke its head out of the fence of some house

144

and start barking at us and scare us like that.

145

That happened a lot.

146

By the way, we can use the phrase poke your head out.

147

this means that you stick your head out of some opening.

148

So these dogs would poke their head out of the fence

149

and bark and growl at us and it would always scare us when that happened.

150

That happened to me a lot when living in Mexico

151

and I would just get a little bit nervous about my son too.

152

And now that my son can walk and he's there on the ground, when other dogs come up to us,

153

I get a little bit nervous and I kind of want to protect my son

154

and make sure that he doesn't get bit by a dog because that would be a disaster.

155

So as you can see,

156

there are some different reasons why I stopped liking dogs that much when I was living in Mexico.

157

And I know that these things are not the dog's fault.

158

They're the owner's fault.

159

I know that.

160

So don't accuse me of unfairly blaming these dogs.

161

I know that these are animals.

162

So I know that the owners are the ones responsible for this.

163

But still, because of this reality, I don't really like dogs that much nowadays.

164

And I know many of you love dogs, so don't get mad at me, okay?

165

This is just my personal preference.

166

And I know that dogs are fun and friendly, but they're just not for me.

167

Over the years I've realized that I prefer not having a dog

168

and I prefer when my neighbors have cats rather than dogs simply

169

because of the noise and because it makes it hard for me to work

170

or for my son to sleep or whatever right and I do want to close the episode with some positive words about dogs.

171

I don't want you all to hate me now that you've realized that I'm not a big dog lover.

172

I do want to say that I like certain things about dogs.

173

For example, I like that dogs are very loyal.

174

I really admire that trait.

175

The word trait means characteristic.

176

I like that dogs are loyal to their owners.

177

That's cool.

178

So dogs will just follow their owners everywhere and they won't abandon them,

179

hopefully, and they will protect their owners.

180

That's really cool.

181

And dogs tend to be happy.

182

They're like happy animals, which is nice because when your dog is in a good mood,

183

it puts you in a good mood, right?

184

So I think that they have a good effect on their owner's mental health and their mood.

185

so that's a big advantage of having a dog

186

and dogs are fun you can play with them you can

187

invent games you can teach them different tricks dogs are fun animals compared to some other pets let's say

188

and I even think it's good to raise them with kids.

189

It's good to have dogs and kids in the same house.

190

I think that that's a good thing in most cases.

191

However, I am not going to do that with my kids.

192

In the past, my wife and I talked about the possibility of getting a dog

193

if we lived in a house with a backyard and space and all of that.

194

However, that was years ago when we talked about that.

195

Now we both realize that there are more complications that need to be considered.

196

And as I already mentioned, I'm not a big dog person anymore.

197

I liked dogs as a kid, it was nice growing up with dogs,

198

but I would prefer not to have one.

199

Especially because I don't like having the responsibility of taking care of these animals and feeding them,

200

taking them out, doing all of the things that you need to do if you want to be a good dog owner.

201

So because I'm not able to assume that responsibility,

202

I shouldn't have a dog and I'm sure you would agree with me

203

that a person who isn't capable of being responsible for an animal shouldn't have that animal, right?

204

That's better for everyone.

205

So that's pretty much it for today.

206

I know that a lot of you probably like me less now because you know that I don't like dogs that much,

207

but really you and I both know

208

that my problem is more with the dog owners who let all of these things happen that I didn't like, right?

209

So dogs are fine, dogs are cool animals,

210

but I prefer not to have dogs barking around me and all that kind of stuff.

211

All right, that's it for today.
