Input: About 6 months ago our dog had to be put down, he was an 11 year old dog suffering from seizures  and general old age related issues.

He was a good dog but towards the end he was peeing in the house and generally destroying the first house we actually owned and while I loved him to bits it was getting very trying towards the end as I was trying to get the house nice and he was messing it up nearly as fast as I was fixing it up.

Anyhow it's been a 6 months and my partner and son are talking about getting another dog, now in principal I don't have a problem.

My issue is we are all out during the day for school and work. I think it's cruel to get a dog and leave it alone all day, as a minimum it will be alone for roughly 7hours a day. I honestly think that once the novelty of a new dog wears off the new dog will become a chore rather than a pleasure and I really don't like the idea of having the poor animal going nutty from boredom for our entertainment.

Am I the arsehole?
