Well I’d say yes, I can only comment on my own life, but my OH would definitely see the kids sports day as being more important than walking the dogs.For things like sports day, do they both need to be there all day? Could one of them not have popped back at some point during the day to walk the dogs?
When I suggest leaving things like that to see to the dogs, he accuses me of letting the dogs dictate what we’re doing and reminds me that we’re humans and they are not.
I’ve had the dog walker come before when we’ve all been round the corner at a family bbq where we couldn’t take the dogs with us
Sometimes it’s just easier to have someone else pop in and take them a quick walk
