    Goldfish require a ton of effort. They need huge tanks, water filtration systems, chemical balancing (nitrate buildup can kill them pretty quickly), and regularly scheduled feeding times. Dogs on the other hand just need to be taken outside every few hours and fed two or three times a day on top of the occasional vet visit.

      Not if you stick em in a bowl and let them die in a few months.

        Yeah, all that stuff about filtration systems and big tanks sounds way more expensive than just buying a new goldfish every couple of months.

        Fortunately I don’t see too many people sticking dogs in bowls.
