Dogs & Bordeom

Snoopy's not bored, but not, as Walker Percy claimed, because dogs fall asleep instead of getting bored. (Wut?)

I think dogs do get bored..like the dog stuck out I the garden down the hill from here until the owners came back in the wee small hours....woof woof woof.....wooof woof woof..for hours,.

GZ: Absolutely my point! I can't believe anyone would say dogs don't get bored---they're famous for chewing up furniture and barking for HOURS from boredom, or they develop all sorts of sad behavioral problems from being left alone with nothing to do, like chewing off their fur.

At least my dog has a view to help relieve his boredom... and a job, protecting the sidewalks from interloping dogs.
