A Conversation with Carlos O’Leary

Being a pet owner has its perks—loyal companionship, constant affection, and they even act as your own personal bodyguard sometimes. One thing is for sure—our furry friend loves being close to us, and the sleeping area is no exception. This is great until you are trying to get it on with that special someone. Prudishness about sex, like the wheel, is an entirely human invention. Dogs don't care if you're having sex, so why bother about whether the dog is in the room while you're doing it?

It’s a tricky question because we all have differently-sized dogs possessing a wide array of personalities, from farm dog to lap dog, from antisocial to clingy. So is it okay for a dog to be around while somebody else is burying a bone?

While some of us are cool with man’s best friend being nearby when people are engaging in man’s favorite activity, others might find it kind of gross to share the same space when being so intimate.
