>>90174459>A dog is better than a loving relationship with another human beingAnon, some of us prefer the company of humans.
Not to mention Scooby is 7 years old. He'll be dead in at most 8 years. It's best to invest in a relationship that will last your whole life than in a relationship that has less than a decade left, at most.
Also a coward dog? Why would you want that? Get a dog that will risk his life for you, not one that hides at the smallest hint of danger.
>>90183734It's still a dog. It will die in like, 8 years.
>>90183755>>90187561Dogs are good pets. They're loyal, unselfish, willing to defend you, and fun to have around. Scooby is not loyal (since he has somewhat human intelligence, he has been shown to be selfish), he's a coward, and will not defend you against threats, and the only thing that he does is eat.
>>90187753>Implying that's not the best decision>Implying studying how a dog has near human intelligence isn't for the better of mankind>Implying this wont help advance human knowledge and our understanding of lifeAnon, it's a dog. Get over it.
>>90188725>Dogs won't stab you in the backScooby consciously tried to break Velma and Shaggy up.
>A dog will be with you at your best and at your worstScooby tried to keep shaggy to himself due to not wanting to share his best friend. How is that a good thing?
>A dog doesn't care if you have a big circle of friends or connects or if you know someone with a way of getting you a cushy jobThis dog tried to shrink his opportunities, though.
>A dog will protect you from anything threatening your life.We're still talking about the same dog, aren't we? Scooby runs at the first opportunitiy. He is a terrible guard dog, and would leave you to die if he thought he would get hurt.
>A dog will sit by you as you breathe your last breaths, and still wait for you to 'wake' up.Scooby is 7. He, at most, has 8 year left to live. He's not going to live that long.
