For dog owners, it's truly essential to make time for their dogs. A dog's lifespan is short, only a little over ten years. But their entire lives are spent waiting—waiting for their owner to come home from get off work, waiting for their owner to go on business trips. Their eyes are only for you!

On August 8th in Hebei, a netizen who owns a Golden Retriever was facing a difficult situation. Due to a recent company arrangement, she had to go on a 20-day business trip, which was very hard for her to accept as a dog owner. However, she had no other choice but to leave the dog with food and water for the entire 20 days. Even so, she was still worried about her dog and installed a camera to check on it daily.

But seeing the dog's behavior on the first night after leaving, the netizen was heartbroken! The dog had spent almost the entire day waiting for them, constantly pacing around the door and living room! It didn't know why its owner hadn't returned that day and just kept waiting! That sight was heartbreaking! And the dog had to endure 20 more nights like that—it was heartbreaking to think about! Therefore, the netizen advised those considering getting a pet that if they didn't have the time, energy, or ability, they really shouldn't get a dog! It would be too unfair to the dog!
