Reddit Thread: People's Replies To Whether To Get Dogs For The Lifestyle You Have Or The One You Want

Dogs are probably most energetic than any other pets we've ever known. After stressful working hours, perhaps, the most awaited time of your day is when you can go home with these little furry friends. After all, seeing them wagging their tails waiting for you with a delightful face can relieve all of your stress.
Recently, there has been a viral trend within the dog lover community. Many people are choosing “active” or “energetic” breeds of dogs to get themselves active, too. But, this method fails to convince the majority of people. Some are still doubtful about its efficiency, while others don't really think it's a good idea to adopt dogs for self-benefit.
A woman has raised this issue on Reddit by asking people whether dogs should be adopted for the lifestyle that they have or the one they think they want. The post has 2.8K upvotes and 472 comments.

The woman clearly showed in her post her dislike for the idea of getting dogs for the lifestyle that people want. To support her opinion, she told two stories of a family that she knew and one of her friends, who decided to have a dog to encourage themselves to be more "active" but ended up sticking to their old way.
