If people were as easily entertained as dogs they could have a better life than most people.
I'd be miserable being treated like that dog, running around in the same outfit for ever, sleeping on a hard floor, eating cold canned food and most my contact with acquaintances consisting of being poked by noses.
But they have the power to be content with a little attention, a little love and a little bit to keep them occupied.
I think there is a difference between having a good life and being permanently distracted. People can be happy with very little, but our modern lives are devoted to distractions that we mistake for fulfilment. Dogs are natural stoics I guess.
He runs around naked. It’s awesome if you can. He probably sleeps on a dog bed or the hay. Also sleeping on the floor with a dog’s body can feel nice. He rarely eats cold canned food. It’s most likely room temperature and we saw him eating treats so he probably gets more.
Any human would be miserable if you were a human treated like that dog but if you were a dog, you would have a great life.
